when we wake

no faith is real but somehow
I know faith is real
and as far as religion goes
they are probably all right
and at the same time I think
they are all wrong because
they think only they can be right
there is no room for others
to be correct as well
it's not something you can touch
it's not that kind of real but
being brought up in two generations
of faith I can completely respect
it's reality and know faith is real
learning though it can also be dangerous
because the collective mind
seems to stop questioning and learning
and the collective mind is governed
by ideas of other people
not their individual path to truth
connection to the unknown
the architect of all things natural
the song of the pre dawn birds
and until the sunset light vanishes
and the night lights illuminate
isn't it possible that the mind
and the thoughts and the dreams
observations can they be considered
communications with the unknown
the architect of all things natural
isn't it as possible that our own
individual ideas can be just as powerful
as those that call the people
to worship their idea and everyone
else is wrong what if none are wrong
and it's alright because none of us
will ever know or maybe we all know
and we realize it finally
when we wake up...
