Appearances
How do you know where my mind goes
What my heart feels
How my words flow?
How do you know if my thoughts are whirling,
If I'm sane or not,
If I'm right or wrong?
How do you know that I am who I am
That I am who I say I am
That I am who I appear to be?
How do I know you are who you are
That you are who you say you are
That you are who you appear to be?
The truth is that neither I nor you know,
Neither are we sure
But for now let us let appearances be.
