When Ignorance Be Bliss
There will be times in the lives
Of the most strongest
And steadfast men
When they know not
What to say or do…
What is right or wrong
When they know not
What’s truly goin’ on…
Confusion and bewilderment
Are words that readily come to the fore
Circumstance …and mayhaps just chance
Can cloud the clearest of minds
And ignorance can be bliss
Oft times it seems the brightest dreams
Be sunk in a sepia sea
Aye, sometimes being in the dark
… is not such the bad place to be…
