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 expanding sphere
That never ends
Some call it the universe
But the universe has its edges
Its beginnings
It’s even further on than that
When I realize I cannot contain this infinity
I realize I cannot contain what is right, what is wrong
This dichotomous fruit that grows from a tree of death
I’ve thought it was life all along
–
It’s not
–
But it just might be what points me to the one that is life
If I’ll simply hold on to the one that is all
The one that is
The one that loves
No matter what part of myself I give
I don’t have to wear a mask anymore
I don’t have to put on a show
I don’t have to have the right answer, the right prayer
There is nothing I have to know
There is only that which I live, I experience
And for each and every one of us that can be unique
Just like the heartbeat of our own DNA
Just like the DNA of our own heartbeat
–
I don’t have to be right
I just simply have to be loved
And pass that on to anyone and everything around me
