breaking Illusions
May 21, 2009 § 30 Comments
peace for the world,
peace through words.
yet the strength of an illusion depends on the perceiver
And when time comes we break it and adhere .
Let it be chains or bars ,
Nothing can stop the light from penetrating the walls ,
The eye can see through the darkness ,
That which shall glow will show
And where Β there is fire there is smoke .
Wings of the mind are our thoughts
And in there many wars were fought .
We can now stretch them and fly ,
From the moonless night , rise Β ;Β
Our actions are right ,
Our hands never lose their sight .
Freedom of the sky ,
Shadows of a full moon night ,
The balance is so straight ,
Everything is an illusion ,
Yet we do need to live in it ,
So that we can break it .
The light shines the brightest
first ! yay !

How can you “break” an illusion?
Erm, never mind. Btw, how come this is so small?! π
ha just like that π
Your rebel mind is not accepting that certain things may not be able to be broken? We would like to see more such short poems.

you think differently in this world where everyone thinks they are unique and that is your special quality/charm
keep thinking and writing(not that you will stop anyway π )
looking forward to seeing your gradual progress towards maturity (in years that is)
