Life's Promises






















I have had enough of
empty promises.
The imminent let down of each ripe opportunity
spoiling before my eyes.
My mother said I am like a shattered crystal.
A collection of sparkling fragments
begging to be put back together.
Most seek to gain a better understanding of the world.
I wish to lose it.
Please, give me the ignorant bliss I long for.
The inability to distinguish if I should press
                                    fast forward
                     or
rewind.

We're so close to something better left unknown.      -Metric
