Beautiful Little Fools
Once upon a time,
There were a boy and a girl,
Living out in ignorant bliss
Whenever they danced in their lacy frills.
They only knew gold and pastels
Because they got no clue
Of what it meant
To feel gray and blue.
They gave no thought
To the ugly truth.
They rather went with the lie
Than to go through life like Ruth.
They paid no attention
To the riots at night.
They rather grabbed the darkness
Than to grasp the burning light.
Like the golden leaves falling
To the icy swimming pools,
They knew nothing about life
Because they were just beautiful little fools.
They would never know tomorrow,
Like the delicate flowers.
Without ever knowing it,
They lived happily ever after.
