Illusion Or Verity
I write what I feel
What I see
What I imagine
And realize that
It may be my feelings
It may be yours
Perhaps, someone else
Or maybe, for all
Who have experienced that
Since I am a poet
I express it in exact words,
Which illustrate a truth
And reality
However,
It can be an illusion,
Far from the facts
But the direct narration
With a direct figure
It verifies the truth and reality
Therefore,
I speak to You
Find out, who you are
It is You that
I address, in my words
Or someone else than You?
My abbreviations display
The reliability and authenticity
Yes, it is true; indeed
