Into The Wild

He disappeared into the forest losing himself in the trees & vines What he leaves behind are memories rooted in time in the minds of those he's left behind His soul cries releasing silent tears from eyes that have seen different but not greener pastures They've captured an essence of life that many will never grasp Through his eyes he sees the whole world in his hands & holds tight to global visions that arise Scenes are being manipulated to capture minds within the masses unaware of the lies It matters not how many lies the world tells he knows the language it speaks but chooses to hide The meek seek to inherit what only the strong are meant to have in time but can they see the signs? His sad eyes aren't just a reflection of the pain he hides but are windows open to views He's viewed a naked world that covers hues & sees it for what it is because he knows it's nude Uncovered it can't hide from eyes that see the ruse from top to bottom It hides truth under trees that have blossomed because the forest is thick Even so he sees what's been planted in rich soil to grow with designs to trick
