I Once Believed ©©

I once believed that the world was round
But now I know it's flat
I once believed what people told me
But now I know the truth

I once believed I could trust what I see
But now I know most things lay underneath
I once believed the truth was important
But now I know only people are

I once believed that love mattered
But now I know that honor matters more
I once believed I could do anything I wanted
But now I know I don’t want too

I once believed that I could trust myself
But now I don’t know
I once believed a pot of gold lay on the other side of a rainbow
But now I know the pot of gold is not on the other side

I once believed in god
But now I believe in kindness
I once believed I could make a difference
But now I know I could only clear the path

I once believed everything was real
But now I know they are make-believe
I once believed that everyone will see what I see
But know I know they have blinded themselves

I once believed I was indestructible
But now I know they were only dreams
I once believed dreams come true
But now………..I’m still dreaming
