SPEAKING YOUR TRUTH

Why do we fear the truth?

When we open Pandora’s box, what monsters will peer back at us with blazing eyes?

It is easier to face the glossy illusion of fabrication

The plastic smiles and painted face

False identities and schemas we have fabricated to make us feel safe

So we can go to bed at night sound of mind

But in our hearts we know we are a fraud

Just like the rest of us

Peace will never be found in delusions of grandeur

Delusions are a construct of a brain that is breaking

And a soul crying for saving 

I don’t love myself

I only love the version of myself I created

So hold the flashlight under my face as I forge puppets and caricatures from shaking hands 

And pray to the gods that I won’t be found out

What is the way out of the cave?

It is by escaping into sunlight and seeing the truth

Sankhya, the Sanskrit word for examination  

We seek truth to gain liberation

And one day, when our hearts become filled with love

We will be fearless to speak our truth 

What harm ever comes from singing our hearts loud and proud?

You risk pushing the naysayers away

Those still trapped in the illusion

The fakes and bastards who see only your Instagrammable self

And reject the substance you now project with power

They wince at the blinding light

And retreat back into the darkness and shadows

Chained to the illusion for eternity
