when the night is darkest
and world starkest
when humanity is inhumane
and every kind word is said with bile
when wicked is good
and laughter is mocking
when peace is held with a loaded gun
and innocents are killing to survive
when the old bury the young
and truth is the ultimate lie
when the poor starve
and others eat themselves to death
when the internet is a right
and privacy is a crime
when you look outside
and realise that prison has no bars
when you look in the mirror
and you see a wraith
when a candle in a field is as bright as the sun
and speck of light can blind
when you know the end is near
and yet you cant see the inevitable
when your fucked
and you dont even know it
then we know ignorance is bliss
and knowledge heartache
I Concur
Agreed. "Ignorance is bliss," but with wisdom comes sorrow. We see with open eyes, but we close our minds to their meaning. This is a good work; I appreciate its thought-provoking nature. Keep up the good writing.

The darkness outside is not so frightening as the one inside. Behind knowing smiles and crocodile tears we hide our fears.
Being angry at someone is to give them power over you, but to forgive is to take away that power.
