An evocative poem, by Kamrun, celebrating humankind, exclusively for Different Truths.

The golden beauty of humanity
The kindhearted gorgeous human soul
The loveable creature that is created by God...
It could be you or I, who belong to this blue sky.

We created history
Invented mystery
Sometimes, it is destiny
Where the Neptune holds a blue moon
Where the sunshine spreads the red vine
Where we get some colorful moments to survive.

So please notice your mindset
See the inner strength
The flaws of etiquette,
which exist as six enemies
In the depth of your brain.
So, know thyself
Where you can find the stars
The luminous shine
The silver light of the soul.

Don’t try to find it out somewhere else
In your palm the whole world exists.
The golden shine...
So where are you looking for the stars?
Every human is a shining star.
