My Struggle

Is it crazier to talk?
Or
Not to talk?
To be understood? 
Or
To understand?
It’s fairly difficult making these transitions in quest for sanity
I think I’m right
You think you’re right
We all think we are right
But
Who really is right?
What is right?
The majority is right!
Can’t change anyone 
But 
One can conform
I voice my opinion –
It makes no sense to you
I don’t voice my opinion
And
That makes no sense to you
You say one thing but mean another
We agree on one thing 
But 
Another thing happens . . .
I think I’m one way
But 
The world sees me as another
Just me and my dog
