I wrote this when I was disenchanted with my now long-gone marriage. I was lied to by media, society, church, and people in general. So, the shattering referred to in this piece is about the pain of reality. And I'd like to add that we also carry around not just positive delusions but so many more negative! I challenge you to shatter the delusions of your youth. You are NOT what your negative "tapes" or "voices" want you to believe. Trust me, you can be safe without those negative beliefs! Your little child within doesn't believe that, but, if you can begin to, you'll be free.
We all are made to believe
What others have said is the truth.
When we find their illusions are delusions
It shatters what we believed in our youth.
People are not always what they say.
And the truth is hard to see,
But we can't let that break our hearts,
Remember we are not all free.
People will come and they'll go,
Our families and friends will fail
We can't rely on this world for peace
Look inside your heart and exhale
