Curiosity

I am a knowledge junkie.

I always have been.

I could tell you how the dinosaurs died, how birds flew.

I could recite all the years that the red devils won the league,

all the valleys in which the jade vine grew.

I knew how men evolved from apes, 

how Atlantis was lost, I knew. 

 

And then the Sun shone, and there were you.

 3 years, 6 cities, 5000 miles and counting 

I still don’t have a clue;

why gray seems to be your favorite color, 

why puppies and pigeons scare you. 

the reasons for those crooked smiles,

the last 50 tantrums you threw. 

 

I still don’t have a clue.

The Sun still shines, 

but I no longer wish I knew.

Atlantis and apes be damned!

I know I’d still have you.

 

p.s : whoever reads this, please, don’t take it too seriously. 🙂
