Our worlds are shaped
So I am told
By what we, each of us, behold
And everything you say or do
Is altered by the way I view.
We act as though our worlds are one
"Right is right and wrong is wrong"
When actually there's more, you see
We each have our own reality.
You offer apples sweet and red,
Yet I see poison in my head.
I tender loving compliments,
You twist my words and take offense.
That gorgeous shade I see, of green,
Perhaps, in your eyes, is not seen.
And all the rose tint that I view,
May be for you some other hue.
My world you cannot know I fear
Tho' I would share what I find here:
A peace that's rich, a love that's true
A beauty rare, a joy to view
Each stranger's heart I hope will be
The one to truly see like me
I search the earth whereve'er I roam
For worlds, the mirror of my own
If this is true as it would seem
I am the ruler of my dream
Thus I control what happens here
And how each person does appear
And curious as it seems to be
This world does, in fact, revolve round me!!
