they may be wrong

just because they said it,
don't make it so.
it's right in their mind, but
their mind is anchored in their reality...

not necessarily in the world of hopefulness
of what can be
of what i know is already...
even though they can't see it
hear it
taste or touch
it.

just because they said it,
don't mean it's fact
it's their truth
untested by my determination
drive
persistence.
