The Short (completed) Some want to give me an answer Some wish to Tell me what’s so But I’d rather live in the present The place of “I really don’t know” – This place is where I can go higher This place is where I am just free This place is where I live from…
Perspective
Perspective For so long I’ve thought truth Is what is right, not what is wrong I’m beginning to discover there are many, many levels Your truth is often what you see What you only want to see Yet real truth goes much further beyond that Much deeper than that Much further out and about An…
