This is a free verse poem that I wrote for school a couple of months ago.
Comment with any criticism, please! :)
Is There Any Hope?
If ignorance is bliss,
Then how can people be miserable?
In people’s mind there is no distinction,
Nothing can be called real.
Everyone plays his or her part,
How can fate be an option when we are already so set?
So set into these ways,
The ways that have been made so clear.
No space to breath and no space for difference.
Have you ever wondered what you are missing?
Ever wondered what lies outside of your own world?
Sometimes opening your eyes is not only the first step,
But the only one.
Change is something that is always blamed,
But is it really a difference?
Or have people come to realize,
How animosity can be avoided.
If we ever were to seek out the answers,
We wouldn’t be able to realize them,
Or let them help us,
Because we are so blissfully ignorant,
We know of no other way.
