It's a straight fact
There is no fact for

The fact of the matter is

The angle of one's perspective
Concerns that of the matter:

A universal,
Ever-changing fact.

You tell me
I am.

I tell you
You are You,

But trust
Is weighed upon what is
Based off
What is decreed.

By whom?

The Tower of Babel was built
On the assumption
We needed to be validated
By the divine.

Why?

We were one. We were unified. We were on our way.

Yet, the old one's
Said, No, it's not enough.
We need him
To prove
We are we.

Nature
Always has
Their explanation.

Nature
Always has
Their provocation.

Nature
Always has
Their human extension

No matter how far
We choose
To separate.

Only You -
In no one's debt but your own -
Can define and discover
The multitudes of

What it means

To Be You & Me.

"So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth"
