VOICES ON THE INSIDE

My brain says to my eyes:
“What do you see?”
My eyes say to my brain:
“What do you want us to see?”

I remember someone once said:
“What you see may not be the real truth.”
But I want to ask:
“What then is the real truth?”

I appreciate having beautiful eyes,
Yet what I mostly see are lies.

Maybe I need to work more on opening
Those eyes that can discern the differences
Between the truth and the lies.
