Ignorance and it's Bliss
By: Hope


Pain was unknown
Reality was unreal
Time never mattered
Ignorance is bliss…

People were happy.
Never worrying
Never stressing.
Ignorance is bliss…

Lifetimes were forgotten
Loves were never lost
Pain was never dealt with
Yet people still say Ignorance is bliss.

Happiness was all there was
No dark
Only light
My ignorance was bliss…

Now there is pain
Darkness and rage
Time is all I have left
And I'm left to reflect on my past Ignorance and it's Bliss.

The clock keeps ticking
And time keeps passing
Happiness is rare
Rage and Pain is constant
Ignorance was truly the purest form of bliss…

I should have known better,
Known that it wouldn't last
So quickly was I pulled from happiness
So quickly was it gone.

Now I'm left to wonder.
Going through my pain and sorrow
Was the ignorance my weakness
Or was it simply my bliss?

The clock keeps ticking
And I smile and begin to wonder
I begin to remember of a place with no fear nor doubt
Only happiness and light.

No darkness to speak of,
No pain to be thought of.
My ignorance was my bliss.
