~ A Smiling Pessimist ~

I smile because the world is grim,

Consumed by people enthralled by sin,

And even with all the demons within,

I smile...

I smile at the repulsive traditions,

Of all the parasitic politicians,

Who ignore the homeless living conditions,

I smile...

I smile though the Earth’s possessed,

At the men who stare at women’s chests,

And although with money you’re all obsessed,

I smile...

I smile because I see no tomorrow,

The Earth is dying, it’s becoming hollow,

And although society is drowning in sorrow,

I smile...

I smile because the end is near,

And soon there won’t be anyone here,

Not a soul will be left to bring me tears,

So I smile...

I smile and it may not seem realistic,

Some may believe I’m a bit egotistic,

But to that I would say “I’m just positively pessimistic”,

And then I’d smile...

I’d smile and I’d smile and I’d wait for oblivion...
