Looking Glass
The past defines the present,
but what about the future defining the past.
All depends on the view, the eye
a looking glass being looked through into a new
mystical land
or a land filled with smoke and ruin.
Perspective is everything.
A cup is half full,
or is it half empty?
Which is right, which is wrong?
Or is there really a wrong, or a right?
Who are you, or who do you think you are?
two different people, two different plans.
Two different perceptions.
That looking glass lies.
It shows nothing, yet nothing is made of something.
Hearts desire, don't know it yet.
that looking glass changes and evolves,
moment to moment,
second to second.
the world is a matter of perspective,
is it good or is it bad.
Is our past what defines the future?
Or is it the other way around?
