Teaching

I have sat..
With souls older than time,..
Beneath the open fire ..
Of suns, in moon lights,..
And shared words till dawn,..

Still there were Questions..
Left to answer,..
To know it all ..
Is to have lived a lie,..
(shame on you)..

And I became wiser..
With the knowledge ..
That I am still learning,..

And it came to be ..
That I will know from the young..
what roads, I haven’t walked on,..
The old will tell, what burns they felt..
From walking such paths ..

Each will teach ..
And I will learn from each..
Each step I take..

To know it all..
Is to have lived a lie..
(shame on you)..
