three truths

Chad Sexington

first one's mine
it always comes first
it has to.
humanity has it's ways.
no escaping that...
no point in even trying.
eyes can only see in one direction
god made it that way.
never claimed to not be stubborn
but admit to it?
never, gotta stay firm.
gotta hold ground
it's my reality
you can't take it.

the next one,
that one's yours.
apparently the contrast
could not be starker
or so it's claimed.
then again it's not MY reality
so it doesn't quite cut it.
afterall, my reality is all i have.
it's all i've been blessed with.
it's all you've been blessed with
the same deck
the same cards.
the hand you've been dealt?
mine always trumps.

but then...
there's the truth.
the reality.
not yours.
not mine.
the so-called grey area
where your black meets my white.
the analogy of color so simple
yet so true
the grey,
that's the truth
the whole world's made of it
nothing but grey
and no matter how skilled the artist
how divine the inspiration
grey can't be made without white.
grey can't be made without black.

Chad Sexington

the clouds
perpetually above
always casting a shadow
hovering metaphorically
simply don't look up
maintain tunnel vision
focus forward
maintain discipline
don't let it happen
don't look up
never lose focus
don't look up
don't look up
don't look up
