Very contemplative, though short. I love these short ones that let the reader really ask themselves for their own interpretation. Thanks for sharing!

Very true... but to find the truth you have to loosen the ego just a tad! Excellent!

You are right dear Anastasia. Middle road is where people find equal ground. Great wisdom shared in your words. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry,

In Buddhism, there's a concept called the "Middle Way." It's a way of life that focuses on moderation; it's believed to be the path to wisdom. This poem reminded me of that. Nice haiku.

idk. sometimes I enjoy lying to myself. reality can be ruthless, and so is the truth. that's why I avoid the main road and take short cuts
