Caught Up in Ignorance

A love poem: ignorance is bliss.

Wrapped up in your scent
A safety blanket, taking it everywhere
Impenetrable against depression
Breathing you in

Shielded by your embrace
Cumbersome armor, never weighed down
Bullets of spite reverberate
Eyes fluttering shut

Still savoring your kiss
A blessing, bestowed upon my lips
Invincible to the egregious
Succumbing to your touch

Smiling against your shoulder
My protector, render me ignorant
Oblivious we flourish
In sweet bliss
