The Foolishness of Optimism
December 16, 2015
How naive you must be,
Can you really not see?
The truth in the lies,
The fright in their eyes?
You think everything will be okay,
They stalk you like a predator stalks its prey.
Its coming to you now
Not everything will be alright, somehow.
The darkness is slowly seeping in,
It’s a long long time before you’ll win.
