Words may conceal intentions Eyes often reveal right emotions When reading a text, satisfy not with its literal terms Go beyond the orbit to perceive what it affirms Overwhelmed not with compliments Their response in your absence matters Don't reckon the people who display flaunt Count your men when you’re in want Never rely on other’s words to know what you are Your conscience speaks better Don’t infer that enemies always stand in front of At times, they stand beside you All who speak harshly are not bad All who keep silence are not so good Smeared smiles fail to erase the miles of differences Greetings with inhibitions not be the loving treats Yonder hills appear smooth and grey Reality shows the grave difference Putting two and two together to draw inferences May not always be probable in life "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye."
