To Be Naive Again

As a person people feel personification Pleasures deeply embedded Emotions as lucid as nightmares Imaginations brighter and bolder than any artist To be naive again And ignore the ridicule of adolescents Consuming knowledge faster than we could remember it Laughing and enjoying the more complex things in life Instead I chose to burden myself as an intellectual Educating myself to an extent where the economically wool is no longer over my eyes And this colorful and vivid dilemma is the actuality of reality To be naive again To see all things from all angles Constructs my mind to a bind It riddles me The youth as the future like babies in pampers with the authority Now answer me As an intellectual the ones that powers power to an extent of growing economies Do you believe that these new things will keep us out of tragedy
