Masks of Hate and Love

Truth is a font,a shadow of a lie. Hiding in front of all that we see letting us believe in the ghost of life. The sleepers see the world In dreams. I see this world through sleepless eyes, dreaming of nothing as this life passes me by. We hide in the shadows, feeding on the crumbs of the almighty society. Yet the ones with the truth In their eyes are the first to step into the light. Who are we to judge the young and the restless? We who fear the light and shy from the true meaning of love. This I say to the ones who see truth: step strong into this world of suffering, for to falter is the endof individuality. The end of spirit, soul, and sanity.
