Journey

Journey

You said you found me
You lied

You said you saw me
You lied

You said you'd bring me back
You lied

The truth is
Your eyes are closed
To what I am
And can become

And no,
No you did not see
What you wanted to see
Some warped version of me
To fit your reality

You saw nothing
With your closed eyes
Your mechanical heart
And your need for my conformity

I need not your welcome
To this world
Because it does not belong
To the blind

It also does not belong
To the widest of open eyes

It belongs to no one
And it always has
And will forever

Reality is ours within which
To exist
Not to recreate
Not to splinter
But to choose

We are not the pathmakers
We are the pathfinders
