It's hard to see
beyond the foggy backdrop we painted ourselves,
the gloomy grey sky that we pasted on the ceilings
of the stage we built in our heads.
It's hard to see
beyond the thoughts we'd gotten used to thinking about.
It's hard to break through the ice sheet,
that prevents us from reaching the water surface.
It is often hard to see things for what they truly are,
so take a good, long look.
Past the mist and beyond the mirage,
sharpen your mind and hold your stance.
You'll find the thing you'd been looking for,
only to realise it had been patiently waiting for you
all along.
