Perception

by S. L. Butterworth - Pisces

You are nothing, 
You are faulsehoods, treachery,
and an adulteres loving words.
Thet prick at the skin,
annoying mosquito,
but never reach the core.
My strength lies in a higher knowledge,
based on the continuing changes that occur around me,
and knowing that they mean no harm.
My perception is a growing seed,
a continous bulb of life that is full of life,
and everything it see's is new and beautiful,
as opposed to strange.
When I look out,
You are benieth me,
Starring into the ground.
I look around,
and those that are traveling look straight above.
I feel guilty,
albeit briefly,
for looking at you,
way down there.
'cause I look there above me,
my perception so clear,
and I remember,
You are nothing.
