The whole of everything
Is always more simple
Than we really think
We as humans tend to complicate things
We have a hard time accepting that some things in this world
Are better left alone
Our hearts will tell us what is really important
If we are willing to accept that the whole of everything
Is that we are all whole in our own ways
Our hearts always know the truth
We just have to understand and let go of the things that we tell ourselves
The things that keep us from truly being free
That keep us chained to hate
And the things that keep us from accepting others
And seeing the light in our fellow man
That tells us that we are somehow better
Or that are actions somehow don't matter
That keep us bound to the material
That tells us we have to play the game
That we have to step over other people
That its inevitable that some people have to be hurt
Some people have to be at the bottom
To keep certain people at the top
That war and pain and diseases and poverty and ignorance
Are just acceptable parts of life
Its just something you can't avoid
And a fate that you can't escape
But the heart knows
The whole of everything
Is always more simple
Then we really think
We tend to complicate things
We are all whole in our own ways
We just have to find the truth in us all
