Blind

It’s been a long time since I’ve understood something completely
And looking back now,
I’m beginning to realize how much I don’t know.
There’s so much to learn
And I know so little.
I always thought I was fine when I was younger-
Excuse me,
Not fine-
Good, for a lack of a better word.
And now,
I simply can’t believe that everything means nothing.
What if this world is made up?
And humans are just…used?
What if you were told that everything you’ve learned
In your entire existence
Is just false information?
I feel like a thick coating has covered me.
I’m blinded from the truth.
May I ever peel the barrier away?
Only time will tell.
Hopefully, I’ll wake up soon
And stare truth right in the eye.

Being Content

I feel like I’m on a journey-
A journey to explore the world and all its vivid elements.
I have trust.
I have faith.
And I’ll willingly leave this godforsaken world behind me
As I search for a new way to solve problems.
I’m floating through the air
At the same height.
Perhaps I’m hovering
And no one knows where I’ll end up.
Well, guess what?
I don’t think I care any longer.
I’m…content with the way things are now,
And being content in my mind
Is just the same as lingering in a blissful truth.
It’s what I’ve wanted for the longest time;
As long as I can remember even.
I’ll gladly stay in that blissful truth
If it means that I’ll be happy forever.
For some reason,
I can never seem to stay…content.
I guess I’ve found it now;
Hovering.
It’s not a physical object,
But a mental image that soothes and relaxes my heart.
I no longer have to worry about petty nuisances.
I wish I can stay like this forever,
And perhaps I can someday.
But for today,
I’m…content.
