if the veil was lifted

ppl

By M.Published about a year ago 1 min read

to go through life

with rose-tinted glasses,

or with no glasses at all

brother

is the world grey to you, as well?

I think people see colors.

I make-believe them

Because I see through the lenses of my spite.

If the veil was lifted,

oh, if the veil was lifted

I could love, even

love and be whole
