The way I see the world

Maybe be different from someone else

The reality i perceive

Depends on myself

 

My beliefs and dreams

May chance my perception

My story and my experiences 

May cause a deception

 

The reality may be real

The reality may be objective

But what I'm able to see

May very well be subjective

 

It doesn't matter if i saw

A mountain or a word

Because i could perceive

A cloud or a bird

 

It may be ilogic

And difficult to explain

The difference in perception

That affects my brain

 

I may only acknowledge 

What i want to see

I may choose to be blind

To the truth in front of me

 

I may choose to dismiss

The ugliness of reality

Or stay true to myself

And my sense of morality

 

I may see without wanting

And perceive without knowing

I may judge a situation 

Even without probing

 

I may follow the trends

And acknowledge a conviction

Or think to myself

And have a suspicion

 

My perception has a filter

That defines what i perceive

That moldes the information

That i end to receive
