Deyasini Thinks

I am not what I look like, I am not what you think right I am not the siren to seduce you, I am not the trumpet to call and defeat you I am the broom that can sweep your city clean, I am the voice that keeps you from your worst sin I am the weight of your conscience that you try to shut out with anger and vengeance I am the light, I am the Darkness, I am Heat and the cold Zephyr I am God that you bow down before, I am the beggar you steal your bread from I am the leader, I am the reader, I am the cook and I am the weaver I am who creates it All I am what the Past is made from and I am what the Future will eventually become I am the infinite Time Look you’re stuck in for your lifetime I am the strength that runs in your bones, I am the weakness, the fragile stone I am the only elastic that holds you strong I am everything you want me to be and yet nothing I am that you so wish to see I am not what I look like, I am not what you th...

Everything has become a trend and every major problem has been reduced ...
