Beautifully Ignorant
some people can't help but talk
not thinking of the words coming out
I’m more of an action man
rather take the bull by it's horns
we can play show and tell
see who has the deeper scars
but I won’t dwell on what used to be
I have more to offer than just broken pieces
and even though farewell friends know this
it won’t stop them from stabbing me in the back
the world is full of innuendos
I rather just shoot it straight
sometimes I love when I shouldn't
hate when not appropriate
reminding myself to never hold back
it’s the only thing that keeps me sane
I need to get these painful feelings out
and I do as I write them down
I used to have many friends
but they’ve dropping off one by one
as I grew to be a better man
they didn't want to hear it
now I know
they were just adding to my destruction
maybe I have been a prick lately
feels more like I’ve grown apart
I rather spend my time high off life
instead of drugs
rather take long walks in the park with my love
staying beautifully ignorant to what's gone wrong
or who has walked out
at the end of the day
things just change
I’ve learned to be happily secluded
not giving in to the latest trends
I’m young, but not too young
I’m old, but not too old
somewhere in the middle I guess
trying to find my place
without anyone's approval

As they say... ignorance is bliss; there’s no doubt about that !
Seclusion, isn’t a bad thing... and sometimes, it’s the best medicine when surrounded by people who may trigger ones insanity !
Love the honesty in this one... 🌻

Wise men talk because they have something to say, fools talk because they have to say something.
