Knowledge

I have laboured for you Working extra hours to gain your attention Submitting to my teachers to bask at your door Subjecting my body to biopsychosocial neglect To be counted among your disciples I hungered for you since my early days My appetite for you was titanic Overpowering my laziness with ease Bypassing my boredom with cunning agility I became a professional knowledge seeker Pouring on volumes of books day and night My imagination stretched to the limit I was totally possessed by your spirit I dreamed of you from a young age Uncovering your face became my dream Undressing your soul became my dream Unwrapping your mystery became my dream Unwinding your heart became my dream Understanding your limits became my dream I climbed the tree of knowledge I wrestled the overwhelming fear of heights I propelled myself to the higher branches I hoped your majestic fruits were nearer I wished for a bite of your magical beans I prayed for an end to my torturous journey I now believe in your eternal existence I know now that you have a infinite height I know now that you are part of life I know now that you are born every day I know now that you are everlasting I know now that you have no boundaries I thank you for allowing me to dream I thank you for encouraging me to learn I thank you for showing me the value of patience I thank you for teaching me discipline I thank you for opening huge doors for me I thank you for bringing out the best in me
