Ignorance

Ignorance is bliss
Say those who are happy 
Aloneness is not to be feared 
Say those who are successful, those who are happy

Pay no mind to what may upset 
Tranquility that none seem to have 
Trust no one but trust yourself 
With caution might I add 

Ignorance is bliss
Say those who are delusional 
Aloneness is not to be feared 
Say those who fear all else, who think they are happy

Is the path of ignorance best for all?
How has the other path worked out for you so far?
