When we see, what do we really see?
Is it all real or just make believe?
There's a fine line between the truth and reality
But our mind only lets us see partially.
We are trapped inside the "cave" of our minds unable to see past the dark.
We are prisoners within ourselves unable to see even a spark.
How we crave to imagine the full picture of what's real
Yet, our eyes deceive our minds and make us believe the unreal.
We ourselves are the creators of our world.
If we only see what we want, we only see a swirl.
A swirl of this vast wonderful place,
where the truth and reality are what we have to face.
I like how you focus on the idea of realities that we discussed in class after reading the allegory. Could you comment on my poem as well please?
