Blissful naivety

Ever growing wisdom and knowledge
wipes the blissful naivety
from a helpless soul
Regrets and dreams about going back
the heart grows cold
Where's the balance, all the glowing reasons
for growing old?

Our happiness
the lingering feeling
of wanting to take part
Will the wisdom finally breach
and fill the heart?

Aging into knowledge
disappointment
cynicism, hopelessness, doubt, despair
Is this our forever tomorrow?

We choose to close our eyes
to mind ourselves and shake our heads
at endless lies
Compromise our lack of points of light
because ignorance is bliss
we create our own balance
and it ends with this.
