ILLUSIONS

 

Illusions: we have them.

Illusions: we are them,

 

But we rather just admit we have them

and keep moving on through the day.

 

Naked honesty is too much and too tough

at times, yet it’s the way to be and the way to go.

 

Others see us as they think we are.

But to be honest we know, we’re not.

 

Slowly as I age I’m admitting

who are I really am.  Slowly.

 

But why not be and see who I am

as God sees and knows I really am. Slowly

 

And God while I’m at it, how about

letting me see who YOU really are? Slowly.
