Truth of My Lonely Truth

TRUTH OF MY LONELY TRUTH Alone in my own lonely world I see the truth hidden inside me And the lies that has kept me company for a long time Deceiving myself of my own deceit Making a fool of my foolishness. The busy times that never gave time for thinking Providing time to busy my hidden unbusied time Covering the future truths with the present lies Abandoned truth…Accepted lie… The world is not a bed of roses I hear Yet never heard it is a bed of thorns Though thorns surround roses Lonely and deep in thought I see my future clearly as in a big screen I see the world as it is Not as I believe it is. I realize, I have been deluding myself With past and present illusions Uncovering many things in the process Especially responsibilities ahead I see in me the man I will be Not the boy I am nor the child I was I see the rugged roads to be taken Not the smooth illusionary roads thought Sometimes, I get afraid of the future Sometimes, I get motivated… It dawns on me that am alone and on my own Knowing that every decision I make now Will affect me in whatever way I made them. Most importantly it reveals the real me in me And dawns on me to tread my paths carefully For unlike my counterparts, am already in the world But assures me of the success to follow The truth of my lonely truth… …Lordvip…
