It's Real

(Painting by: NM)

Not everything needs a name.

Not everyone needs an ending.

Life is a simple equation,

Of ones and zeroes,

Yes and Nos.

Every answer creates a new answer.

The equation is ever changing.

Nothing is real, except reality.

There are other worlds,

With other stories.

Other you's and other me's,

Living differently. Loving other

Ones and zeroes. Does it make you sad

That the other stories never happened?

But they did, yes, they did.

And we see them when we dream.

And we feel them when we breathe.

That's how we know

The weight of reality,

Will always be heavy.

You can count on it.

It will never let you down.

It will hold you in the ground.
