Wisdom

It is conjured up from intelligent words Shown by heart aching experiences of life It is only seen by patient souls Who wait for the instructions of not how to survive But to live and to conquer every last of their fears That has haunted them until they took their time Time to listen and learn Learn that life is a melodious chime That plays strongly in the storms And brings beauty as a rainbow after the rain Wisdom is a blessing yet also a curse Just like every other gift that we’ll ever obtain But wisdom is obtained by the errors of your life And every breath that you take to comprehend The ways to grow an improve Unlike simple knowledge, that will die in the end Wisdom is not only seen from the old But also from the young who grew up too fast For the world has always been cold And when the weak is never sheltered from the storm That knowledge drove sanity astray Imagination dimmed into the shadows And their innocents slowly faded away Wisdom; wisdom is a curse and a blessing For not everyone contains such power Wisdom will surely make you grow But knowledge can wither a flower
