- LOVE -
There is but one truth. We live in a sea of lies. We think we can see, yet what the light sines on is but a series of beautiful deceptions. We think we know. We do not. Everything is an illusion. Whatever we take for granted, it is what slips away first. To find the truth, some will give their lives, walk until they reach the end of the world. A vain effort it is. The heart knows. Some feel, some do not. Full or broken, it is only what we have made out of it. Another deception I am afraid. If the heart knows, then why cannot we? The feelings of the heart, do they exist really? What is our human shell trying to tell us? There is one force that has driven mankind to madness. If control is lost, then love overflows. It is the only truth, one that can as well be deceptive. The line between truth and lies in itself is a lie. If you love, you die. And if you die, you know.
