Quest

Man, a creature of wonders.
Always seeking knowledge in the mysteries of the universe.
While digging into the things that could cause its end.
You go far in search of who you are,
Bringing discomfort to the comfort of nature while seeking comfort.
Trying to acquire what we desire,
You lose your sanity and sanctity to vanity.
Knowledge is power:
Yes!
But what you don’t know is more powerful than you are.
The quest to know the unknown could counter the known.
If you don’t unlearn what you’ve learned to learn.
Enjoy the peace of ignorance, in the serenity of the unknown,
For the universe never makes mistakes;
She could be keeping you for safety.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
