Truth and Reality

Truth, what is truth?

How about reality
Are they similar?
Are they different?

Truth is something most people fear
But why should they fear it
Why are people so afraid of it, why?
Well it’s because people don’t like to be told the truth
They can’t face it and see their virtues or what they have done wrong
They can’t face them like when they face themselves in the mirror

Because that is what their reflection is, their virtues
But also people fear the truth because it can sometimes hurt
And when the truth hurts there is no medicine to make the pain run away
But the truth is everywhere only that we tell our brain to block it out of our minds
And once it’s blocked, our eyes can’t see it anymore
The truth can be whatever you decide to make it

But only you’ll know deep down in your heart the real truth
Now the question that is left is
What is reality?
I say that truth is a bit different from reality
Reality is experienced by one’s body, mind, and eyes other than our own

Whereas truth is knowledge put in front of us to believe it 
As well as we could make something be the truth
Or make it seem like the truth to us
But to others it may seem as just a lie
That lie can be what we want reality to be
Sometimes we can make up how we want our reality of life to be

But it is just a truth in our eyes
Because to others they are just lies
And very different from reality
Reality is the world we live in
Not just a way of thinking or just a thought
Reality is when you believe that it is just so perfect
And don’t realize that you are falling
Instead of climbing each step in front of you

Until you find you’re just wandering around
And suddenly you stop and think
That what you’re doing is falling back down to the first step
That’s when you see reality
And you find yourself stuck in a ditch
Instead of flying to the top
Trying to reach that delicious, mouthwatering success
And now you finally realize that the reality you thought was good
Was actually rotten and spoiled
But this reality helps you to see that mistake
And ease yourself up to the next step

Until you touch that appetizing meal
And see the true reality
Is reality the same as truth?

Or are they different?
