Illusionary

Hebrews 5:14 

14 But solid food is for the mature, whose perceptions are trained by practice to discern both good and evil.

 

Illusionary

 

The fear of being alone is not really aloneness

The state of being alone is not loneliness

Caught within the first may bring many illusions

Found within the second emotions constant clash

 

Perception is not really complete understanding

Awareness of potentiality seldom relates to facts

Darkness in thought exposes only veils of the true

And removes lighthearted opportunity’s impact

 

Questions without answers bring more intrigue

Answers without questions are most oft ignored

Dreams without sleeping appear too many like visions

Because true reality as such seems only for the bored

 

So where to go from here for the ones standing still

What is their destination if they won’t move at all?

If true independence seems in the one’s going up the hill

While all the provisions of life are in the valley after all
