The New Face Of Reality Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

It's stitched with bits and pieces of everything
At its core is a meshwork of multiple identities
And a network of attachments
That gives a false sense of security and hope
It's the fabric of Love
That is missing
It's the foolishness of time and space
That inhabits our hearts
One moment we are full of joy
The other moment we are enveloped in sorrow
We have lost our hope
And our path is full of uncertainties
Fear has embedded itself
Into the crust of our being
We are driven not by compassion
But by the hands of selfishness
We are chasing after materialism
Wealth is our success
It's the logical conclusion
To a life of foolishness
Now listen and listen carefully
It's the absence of the everlasting Truth
That makes us barren
Full of loneliness
And driven by fear
It's the absence of Love
That ties us to the mind of ego and fear
And unleashes the venomous heart of wickedness
Submerging us into selfishness
It's the absence of hope
That ties us to the hands of time
And puts us on the path of uncertainty
It's not wise
To put on the garment of logic
In an everlasting existence
It's mathematical impossible
To derive the formula for happiness
From the classroom of life
It's true
Only the Truth can set us free
