Am I Showing Humility, or Admitting My Cruelty?
September 12, 2009
Never listen to what I say;
I'm a lying, cheating fool!
Don't ever trust my heart to stay;
it wavers, like the light of the moon.
When I say "Oh, I'm alright,"
I'm lying, but please don't ask
why I'm not, or why I lie.
If I wanted you to,
you would see through my mask.

"Yet ah! why should they know their fate? <br /> Since sorrow never comes too late, <br /> And happiness too swiftly flies. <br /> Thought would destroy their paradise. <br /> No more; where ignorance is bliss, <br /> 'Tis folly to be wise." - Thomas Gray, exerpt from 'An Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard'
