Is it hypocrisy or optimism to stand when all the world around you fades like a star in the sky? Is there sin in forcing a smile or did even Jesus hold his head up high? I wonder as I stare into the darkness if it's possible for this life to further pull any light from my eyes.
If I'm left with nothing, have I given up or merely grown content with what I have? There's no logic in missing the sun when your eyes close for sleep, but who has the right to take it away?
We spend lifetimes filling our heads with foolish hopes and dreams only to wake up on the cold floor of reality and wonder at the echo of our voices off the vast empty spaces of naivete.
Was I foolish to hope? Foolish to stop? Or a fool to think you should care?
