Ignoring
And Ignorance
Aren't the same.
Ignoring, is what you did to me.
It's an intentional silence,
A silence that cuts deep.
It lashed at me,
Created a bleeding wound,
An incurable wound of pain.
Ignorance, is innocence.
It's the unknown, it's the magic.
The magic of not knowing.
It was what filled me before,
A purity of naiveness,
A weapon of not knowing the ugliness.
Now I know.
I'm being ignored, ignoring,
And lacking ignorance.
And oh boy,
It hurts.
Real bad.
