perceive.

it can be hard

to believe

things

things we hear

things we feel

things we see

we wonder

if we can

understand

if it is true

we want to believe

words

people

ourselves

and whether it

matters

or it doesn't

sometimes

we want it to

so we believe

to keep us calm

to keep us in touch

to give us something

to hold onto

i do believe

that we are all

very deeply

connected

but still

i question

do you hear

what i hear

do you feel

what i feel

do you see

what i see?
