Substance

 Let the walls come down, let the colors blend up, in the multifaceted truth, we’ll find substances via our views; with every great story untold, we become a holistic self…

In a world of glitter, 

where things have so many layers; 

we search for something real, 

beyond what we could feel;

underneath the surface, 

where the clue is hidden somewhere;

there’s a substance more than a style, 

it won’t disguise or hide out...

Give us substance, 

give us the truth,

the light that shines through,

at the darkest moment;

in the ocean of abundant information, 

let us find the gem of wisdom;

the echo of character, 

the strength of real talent,

substance is the thing,

we should explore further...

Through the noise and distraction, 

we drift away,

put too much focus on the style, 

but ignore the substance;

when the storm is raging, 

we’ll stand our ground,

in the depths of knowing, 

that’s where we become profound.

Let the walls come down, 

let the colors blend up,

in the multifaceted truth, 

we’ll find substances via deep logic;

with every story unfolding,

we discover our true self…
