Know Thyself
Who is to say what life is without you?
You who is maker of all that is
This is no love song to the best candidate in the sky
Or a mere whisper of what life with you already knows
Here lies an echo to bolden your text
As if you added some width to lengthen your final paper due tomorrow
It is unclear who steals your love most
In fact, most still struggle to find a soapbox
To stand on
To aim such gratitude at the bullseye
A passionate fan reveals themselves only to those who pay attention
And a calm mind is your prerequisite to spotting their figure
Hence you and I are interchangeable
I believe, “relationship,” is what they call it
Find that space where clear water crashes on powdery white sand
Then you’ll know what you were missing
Then you’ll know life without them
Then you’ll know thyself
