SEEING IS DECEIVING

FAITHE HALTTE

By ADRIAN PIEDRA MARTINEZPublished 4 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

Colors living inside, though we can’t see

They turn our world upside down

The depth of our perception goes further than we believe

Both with grace

Lay on our face

They see the future

They leave our past behind

They are sensible

Alike the sun

They set and rise

Their light speaks loudly through different dimensions

Though never comprehensible

Through them we experience our fate

Through them, we watch sparks fly

Laughing and crying

As beams disperse into the sky

Never letting fear win,

Always holding us in

Windows to our souls,

Holding an image of the universe

They let anyone who wants in

They remind us seeing is deceiving.
