My Home-Land....

People always asked me WHERE I come from
People always asked me WHERE my parents are
People always asked me WHERE my house is
People always asked me WHERE my HOME is!
When I spoke true words
people always smiled at me
they do not believe their ears
they do not believe their eyes
When I spoke according to THEIR ears
When I spoke according to THEIR eyes
they gazed at me
they stared at me,
BUT no smile come over THEIR lips!
they become friends with me
they like me because I am honest
they love me because they believe THEIR ears
they are mad at me 'cause they believe
THEIR eyes AND THEIR own LIES!
