Who can you trust?
Is there a truth?
Can you believe all you are
told, how you’ve been taught,
or what you been through?

Nursery rhymes, history
lessons and little white lies,
however can you know
if you can’t trust your soul?
Harsh truth. Evermore.

No matter how old, you are
still being sold. The media and
messages taped up on the street,
fallaciously advertise
what you need to be free.

At times we will struggle;
anxiety is real. How can you tell?
What have you felt?
Are you brave enough to face
your distinct mental hell.
