In the beginning, I knew I had to believe, if my dream is to find happiness for everyone and all.
Yet the day when I chose to believe sincerely and deeply for the very 1st time, I came to know hurt as well.
Hence on that very same day, I’d lost as when I’d found the ability to believe again.
So 28 years went by swiftly, and I caught myself standing again in the midst of a familiar scene;
a crossroad between trust and disceit, but with me as the person in question instead.
Should anyone believe in me?
Do I know if you can trust me?
Would I allow you to trust me at all?
In absolute honesty, I was shocked that I couldn’t grasp an answer.
And why?
It’s because I couldn’t trust myself.
It’s then that I realized the disturbing revelation, that the day when I chose to stop believing, I had chose to see everyone else in deceit.
That’s when I began to lie.
…
Somewhere, in some forgotten place deep within my memories long past, I’d met a person who lied and took away my ability to believe.
And now, that person is me, and it is you.
We have become the very culprits who has cultivated the behaviour of human nature that we are so utterly disgusted with,
whether if it’s in total or unconscious hypocrisy.
The only difference now, is that we are aware of this chain of shit we have been passing along like a virus, eating its way slowly into out hearts like maggots in apples.
Fuck! It’s enough.
Today’s the day where there will be no more lies.
The next person I meet will find no deceit standing in between us.
And there will be no more need to bury the guilt of donning needless masks and hypocritical speech,
empty promises or pointless debates.
…
Let’s stop lying to each other?
Let’s not teach our kids that there’s such a thing we call ‘neccessary evils’?
Let’s not lie to ourselves anymore?
I know I can do it,
and I know you can too.
Cause even if I don’t know you well,
I trust you.
