Do we even know what the truth is any more?
All of us too busy hiding behind misguided perceptions
Shedding numerous disguises, executing multiple deceptions
Just to make us feel like we belong, like we 'fit in'
Building so many versions of ourselves
Screen after screen of different personalities
Can our mind even distinguish between all these dualities?
Are we even able to be honest with ourselves any more?
Spinning in our own intricate 'white' lies
The stories we tell people, to ensure they remain allies
Decision after decision taking us down winding pathways
As we slowly lose the ability to decipher our own reality
Forgetting sometimes the reasons for our actions
Being led astray by numerous distractions.
Does this reflect poorly on some sections of society?
We are unable to be ourselves for fear of harsh judgements
Working hard on shifting and morphing to make all the right adjustments
Maybe its time to learn its ok to stand out
Bring yourself to the table, flaws and all
Be true to yourself in the face of adversity
You may be surprised by acceptance for your diversity.
