When we were young,
we gleaned the hopeful lie-truths from this World.
Your good will be rewarded and the evil will be punished,
the sun will always rise on time, no clouds on your birthday,
money in your Christmas cards.
The sad thing
is that I think, sometimes
that the simplicity itself was the lie.
What
do you
think?
I think I miss the assumed simplicity... It was so much easier to smile when a little thing went your way.
