MERE –ILLUSION

This world in which you and I live is a mere illusion,
It captivates our faith, our beliefs and our true vision.
It is made up of all the materialism and is full of Ego,
It hurdles our path of wisdom and stops us to further go.
It tricks us into building wrong and false relationships,
It preys upon us like any demon, making us selfish.
It makes us divine it also makes us evil,
It makes us forget our true self and upheaval.
It acts like a mirage, where there is nothing but reflection,
It appears to be so real and true and full of affection.
It encourages us do all wrong deeds,
It helps us sow no fruits but weeds.
It physically hurts and injures our soul,
It ruptures our innermost conscious with a hole.
But no one realizes it…… No One!!!
Instead we tangle more in this web of confusion
This world in which you and I live is a mere illusion!

Even though I mention the world as a mere illusion, in this poetry which is an excerpt from my book “Inception of our Minds”. I surely not want to send a wrong message to my readers, because this world is very real and we all live it daily.  Actions, events, situations catastrophes, all doings, happenings, just about anything is very real and is affecting our lives on a regular basis.  The only illusionary aspect of this worldly drama is the role which we play. How deeply we immerse ourselves into the role that we totally forget about our true entity that is - I the soul.
