The Expected Unexpected

Fears form their night over the mind
erecting walls so hard to destroy
so the story comes within the head,
don’t go there is the vow
never try and find the gate
for there’s nothing gained
from wandering in a darkness
when you only learn
how it proves you’re a lost.

But what lies in the places
where we paint by brushes
created out of our thoughts
instead of the facts,
often produce some artistry
full of holes and seldom clear.

Truth is often the opposite
of what we think is real
and in that darkness
where we think it is so hard to see
there is a flame from insight
that can burn so bright within
giving an incredible vision
even when we thought
it was a place we would just be blind.
