I Learned {resubmit}

I bathed in the pool of knowledge salty from the tears Paced across its barren floors year after year I learned to listen to the wind where there was no wind at all I learned to ponder everything things both great and small I learned how to remember and how to forget I learned how to dream and how to regret I learned how to taste the memory of romance I learned the pain of empty arms dreaming of a dance I learned time is everything as it ticks away I learned it has a consequence one thats hell to pay I learned about a carpenter a prophet and a Lord I learned to use my pen to help me when I'm bored I learned nothing matters as much as the soul I learned that when you find it it brings meaning to your goals I learned to cherish everything about the human heart I learned I needed to make amends to those I broke apart I learned that I am nothing just a simple man I learned to try and be everything I can But most of all what I learned I learned how to pray And ask the Lord guide me through another day
