THE MIND BEHIND THE VEIL
We walk beneath the same wide sky,
yet see a different shade of blue.
Your world may speak in whispers,
while mine speaks something new.
I carry thoughts like restless waves,
ideas that refuse to sleep.
Some rise like distant thunder,
some settle somewhere deep.
I was never made for empty rooms
inside a hollow mind.
There are worlds behind my silence
that few will ever find.
So if you choose to walk beside me,
don’t expect the ordinary.
My thoughts may twist like midnight roads,
my dreams may wander where they’re scary.
But difference isn’t distance,
and strange is not alone.
Two minds can speak in different ways
and still discover home.
I won’t dim the colors in my soul
just to make the world agree.
The deepest shades of who I am
are part of being me.
So listen beyond the words I say,
look past what you can see.
There is an entire universe
still unfolding inside of me.
