PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I used to feel like my father was a superhero.

I used to feel like skyscrapers could reach heaven.

I used to feel like high school love was something to aspire to have.

I used to feel like getting married was my only purpose in life.

I used to feel like being sad was just a brief thing.

Now I know that my father is weaker than most.

Now I know that skyscrapers are just tall buildings that only reach as far as a business man wants them too.

Now I know that high school love only teaches you lessons that end in heartbrakes.

Now I know that half of the marriages today end in a divorce.

Now I know that depression is a real thing, and stays around to shield you from the enjoyments of life.

The known is not always the best, sometimes the naiive are the safest, and the unknown are the happiest.
