Lines

We live in a world of illusion
Blinded by ties to our nation
A body that claims our devotion
Through stories of sovereign creation

We live in a world filled with legends
Of lies that are spoken as truth
Myths that are weaved into tales
A history learned from our youth

We live in a world of disguises
People divided by lines
Attached to the romance of homeland
Claiming opposing designs

We live in a world of distinction
Of separate credence and name
Realities shifting with time
'Til we realize we're one in the same

We live in this world with our brothers
As vessels enflamed by Her heart
United through journey of spirit
A body where each plays a part

-C. O'Connell-
