Individuality

I know you'll think as you read this

She's such a silly little miss

But you did ask 'What is real?'

So listen close cause here's the deal

We could discuss dimensions and time

Focus in on the universal line

But let's zoom in a bit closer than that

To what you know right under your hat

What's real for me is different for you

Think about perception, desires and view

So many factors that get in the way

You say last week, I say yesterday

Which one is correct matters not at all

Memories can trick yes it does appall

What I see with my own eyes

Could be truth or it may be lies

Opinion doesn't state a fact

Like 'Wow, that man can really act!'

But is fact the same as what is real?

Well, that depends on how you feel.

.....

Reality is what you find

important in your life

Job, kids, mother

maybe it's your wife

Those things are what's real for you

But for me there's a different truth

.....

If you want reality,

look inside of you

If my words you care to heed

I'll give you a small clue

What do you have no doubt

you could never live without?

Whether it be family life

or jobs, careers and avoiding strife

Point of view is reality,

It's individuality

Now I think I've done my part

What's real for you is in your heart.
