The Truth Lies Right In Front Of You Poem by Ilana Sabio

The Truth Lies Right In Front Of You



The Truth Lies Right in Front of You



You look to the right looking for a meaning
You look to the left for an answer
The right takes you on a ride of a life time
The left leaves you on an adventure

On your ride of a life time,
You experience what it means to not be you
Fights happen before you, war is at its greatest
You look for a way out
Finally you are right where you were in the beginning

On your adventure, you look for an answer
You find your self in many situations,
That are not so easy to break out of
You struggle looking for a way to break out of this shut tight shell
You gasp for air when, suddenly you sit up in bed

Realizing it was just a dream you sigh in satisfaction
Your shocked by a loud bang
You look out your window and see soldiers,
Marching down your once peaceful street
You hide under your bed hoping they won't see you
You realize this is reality, this is the truth

I felt that the poem is saying that there is not much difference between reality and a dream. Please let me know if my understanding was correct. Good write.
