The Truth of Utopia

Location

United States

As the world is falling into dystopia

We forget the little moments of utopia

The slightest smiles from strangers

That makes you momentarily forget about the potential dangers

The literary works of the past

That seem to be fading from memory all too fast

The peace in the momentary silence

That makes you forget about all of the worldwide violence

The wonder of the flowers, purple, white, red

That creates the illusion that not 99% of them are dead

An urban metropolis lit up at night

That makes it seem like it wasn't built on thing that aren't right

Sometimes the little beauties of the world are strong

Strong enough to make us forget about where exactly we went wrong.
