the in-between of what they tell you

They never tell you desperation clings to potential and creates versions of dreams with less substance than clouds. They never tell you how scary it is to wake up and realize your fears have fabricated living nightmares.
They never tell you perception is reality but the two aren't always congruent and if you become too familiar with one you lose touch with the other. They never tell you words are just words time is meaning and action is energy.

They tell you that after everything it's just you but they don't tell you that during everything and before everything and in the between of everything it's just you. They tell you you're the creator of your experience and you have the power but they don't tell you that you can lose control of power and creating is overwhelming.

They tell you to live your life but they don't tell you that you can literally live it in your head alone for so long and not even realize it.
