How Can We See?


How can we see?
See what we want to be.
When we are blinded by the ways of other human beings.
Led to feel and to believe in a reality that we cant be.
Told on how we must live in order to succeed.
Told to do what we dont want to do.
This is the world we synchronize ourselves into.
Our pupils within the sockets of our eyes learn just as our ears do.
We use these senses of learning to understand the world and our fears.
To understand what we want and don’t want.
However, we at times ignore our feelings and follow other human beings.
Ignoring our identity and not doing what we please.
This is the world we synchronize ourselves into.
We have fallen into a trend of giving into them.
Ambiguously, meaning those who attempt to rearrange our path.
By not believing in ourselves.
Becoming followers and not leaders.
We are blinded by the way of others tails.
Vaguely, accepting the vivid vibe of today fast culture.
Teaching us we cannot be what we want to be.
Seeing what we cannot see because they have blinded us.
Told to do what we cannot do.
This is the world we synchronize ourselves into.
