Truth or Pretend

so i am going to ask you my friend

because love cannot end

what is our reality?

living our truth or some pretend?

when one feels overwhelmed or nervous

what signals do these send

something has changed

it is hard to comprehend

when allowing another’s journey

we stand by with love and hope

we can offer a hand to lend

but it is not our place to mend

as we feel into our hearts

and knowing the old now must depart

now that we are free

who is it we choose to be?
