I lay here,
In the cemetery where nothing but the shadows of the trees touch,
I lay here happy and content,
This Utopia given by death,
But at the back of my mind,
Gnaws the memories,
The memories of the Dystopia called Living.
I pity and feel sorry for those who live,
Death is so comforting.
But,
If death brings quick happiness,
Wheres the fun in death?
It's more fun to fight for happiness than it being given to you,
Right?
So recently I've been chilling in a nearby cemetery, oddly enough it's super peaceful, more peaceful than the world beyond the cemetery's chain-link fences. A Utopia within a Dystopia.
