Reality is only ones perception of the truth.
And considering the truth is pliable,
Reality becomes what one would soon define deniable.
But many men have sailed over seas.
The truth is what you make of it or fake of it.
So break it, take it, make it or fake it.

But I know what you do not,
It's why I'm living here.
You choose to see in sadness,
And to live in fear.
It's hard for you to wake up,
And change your only life,
You're only living once so you should
Live it without strife.

There's no need for sadness if you understand the way,
Pain can be rejected, ejected,
If only you will realise it's not the only way.
Misery extracted from your life, And just for you,
I'll show you all my secrets and my wisdom.
And everything you need, exactly what to do.

All you need is mind and heart,
To change the way you view,
Happiness and joy,
Love if you wanted to.
All you need to make the change
Is look at what you are.
Love yourself and love your life
You will see that it's not hard.

Make the change. Find your worth.
You are only reflections of what you perceive,
So change the way you see things.

I liked this in a motivational way. You should put it on myspace for those suckers. No, but it had some nice solid yet gentle encouragement and I liked that.
When you used the word "fake" so close together in the first verse I wasn't sure if I liked that, but the first one needs to stay for sure because that's got a nice ring to it and the second one seems to fit a rhythm. Right now i couldn't think of a word to suggest to replace it.
Not a bad piece at all. Is it a song? I think it would be cool that way, but it's a nice poem, too. It's like finally realizing the sunshine behind the clouds.
