To Understand
Crave knowledge
Crave learning
Crave Challenge of the mind
Those facts
figuring
information
The beautiful sound of pages
turning
Questions asked
Pen on paper
Writing beauty
struggling
to understand
all craving the same
Wanted to wrap their minds around it
To make it theirs
Formulate
Conclude
Write
And discover
Sharpening the brain
Discussing
How the war even started
And how we can change the world
Stimulated minds all in one room
Focused
And I'm here
Craving there, and their.
Yet I'm on my own
One stimulated mind
As a spark flares
Trying to catch on to something
To make it last
A little longer.
To catch onto it and burn.
Producing fire, heat… something
Thirsty for knowledge
Yet I'm all alone
Yet I'm on my own
In this homely desert.
