"The Illusion We Live: How Our Perceptions Trick Us Every Day 🔮"

"The Hidden Reality: How Illusions Shape Our Lives 🌍"

By PRABAL TR PROPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

illusion - The Veil That Clouds Our Life ✨

-

We walk through life with eyes so bright,

Yet often, dear, we lose our sight.

What we believe, what we perceive,

Is not always as we conceive. 🌪️

-

Illusions rise, they twist and play,

Veiling truth in soft array.

What’s real, and what’s false? Who can say,

When shadows dance at the break of day? 🌙

-

A face appears, a smile so sweet,

But in the haze, the truth’s deceit.

We chase the stars, we chase the dream,

But illusions lurk within the gleam. 🌟

-

Like a whisper in the still of night,

The mind deceives, it clouds our sight.

A fleeting glance, a passing thought,

Tangles the truth we once sought. 🌀

-

But pause a moment, breathe and see,

The veil is lifted, you are free.

Life’s truth is deeper, far beyond,

What the eye beholds, what we respond. 🌱

-

So break the chains, let go the lie,

Look past the mask, beyond the sky.

For in the silence, deep inside,

Your true self waits, no need to hide. 💫

Poet’s Note:

In our journey through life, illusions weave themselves into our understanding, blurring the lines between what’s real and what’s imagined. This poem seeks to remind us that the truth often lies hidden beneath the surface, beyond the illusions we see. When we free ourselves from these veils, we can discover our true selves and live with clarity. Let’s learn to look beyond the surface, for that’s where life’s essence truly resides.

    Good job, but this could be hard at times for most of us. Great idea though.
