Ignorance is Bliss

I find happiness is not knowing things. It's not that I don't care, but I find there is no use in worrying things about you don't have the power to change, so might as well not think of them.

Ignorance is Bliss

Happiness in ignorance.

Cause ignorance is bliss.

It's funny how content I am

With all the info that I miss. 

I live life in a vacuum.

Never letting news get in,

Once I start to think of life

Bad thoughts start to begin. 

I'd rather not know whats going on.

I prefer to keep to myself. 

It's not that I don't care.

But it does't effect my health. 

Whats the point in getting angry.

No need to be upset,

Lifes not meant to live unhappy

Cause of things thats have no threat. 

Millions are worrying everyday

About problems that aren't theres. 

Just live life with a drop of antichrist 

Cause honestly, Who really cares?

I'd rather think of rainbows and butterflies 

Then sickness wars and death. 

Theres a million things to think about 

Then to think of your last breath. 

I think about a happy life,

Where horrors don't exist. 

Life is what you make of it,

Even if fogged out by the mist. 

So turn the news on tv off,

Put the news paper down. 

Stop listening to gossip going around.

No more reasons to frown.

Hehehe, this reminds me of what my boyfriend told me when I said, "All I've ever wanted was to be happy," he looked at me and with all seriousness said, "Happiness is not something you get, but rather a state of mind!" He was right after all, you can't be happy if you're not! Your poem expressed this wonderfully and with a pleasant fluidity that made me smile. Especially the line about turning off the news, such depressing crap will kill you heart and soul! I hope you never stray from your bliss and there remain at peace all the rest of your days! Excellent write. :)

This is so true! I like to know what is going on but I don't dwell on it. Even though I love this piece it is full of grammatical errors. If you would like me to list them let me know.
