Power of the Mind

Life is one big illusion The power of magic What you think is there isn't really there at all You make the mistake of seeing what you believe to be true Once uncovered nothing appears as you saw it You get caught up in the imagination of what you wish you could see The different colors that fill the mind The magical powers that pull at your heart All it really does pull you apart And then you are back right at the start Nothing to have , nothing to hold But no one could tell you because you wouldn't be told You hang on to your imagination Hoping you will see what's to be revealed Once the illusion has taken over your heart and the colors fill your mind Then it's all been lifted and your back at the start Seeing things in a simple way is so hard to do But just relax and see what is best for you Staying and facing the world without its magical powers and the bright colors that fill your mind Is some times easier and kind Believe what you want and see what you need to see But at the end of the day in the world it's just what you need that matters

The simple pleasures to create the moments, the seed, to making memories. Nothing less. Your eyes just have to be ready for it. This was deep. Nice work!
