A/N: This could fit all four brothers, but I'm sure many of you will lean a bit further towads Raph. Personally, I can't explain it, but I keep thinking Donnie. Is that just me, or what? Enjoy.
IGNORANCE IS STILL BLISS
by
Mickis
Genre: Poetry/Angst
Language: English
Rating: K+Summary: Innocence is a temporary state of being, due to the inevitable act of growing up.
I
remember a time when fears were nothing but fears
And nightmares
something you always woke up from
I remember when my dreams had
yet to be unfulfilled
And my hopes still not smashed
I
remember a time when tears were spoiled
And laughter something
built on innocence
I remember when my problems were petty
And
my anger still unjust
Knowledge
may be a treasure
But ignorance is still bliss
For while
ignorance is what makes the mind prejudiced
Knowledge is the one
responsible for turning it bitter
