Ignorance & Bliss

and I extend an open hand
over the horizon
waiting for the sun
to fall into my palm and hide inside my fist

in a foreign land
watching the sea
reaching for the sun
rising like a lover for the promised kiss

I'm longing for all the things I will never get
I'm longing for all the things I had and lost
I'm longing for innocence and simple dreams
I'm longing for ignorance and bliss
