LINES OF THOUGHT © 2016
The reflection of illusion, so clear and cruel,
Shows the incapacity of men, in this veil,
To live in true equality,
Lost in the shadows of their own vanity.
Each one trapped in the mirror of their being,
Without seeing the other, without understanding the meaning
Of extending a hand, of sharing the ground,
Of making justice the only sound.
The illusion that separates, that creates divisions,
Is the invisible barrier between hearts' visions.
But the truth lies beyond this cold reflection,
In the simplicity of being one connection.
One day, perhaps, the mirror will break,
And humanity will find the peace it could make.
When the illusion finally disappears,
We will see that equality is the believer's cheers.
