Words of Wisdom

I made a promise once, long ago
That I'd always stand by your side
Protect you 'til death, wherever you go
But this life has been one hell of a ride
Once seen as Gods, Creators, and Kings
So determined we were to show them the Truth
But all that they wanted was to grow their own wings
Unfortunate, this trait that we've had since our youth
We may not share the gifts we were given, I explained
But the Knowledge we share may be the seed that grows
Into Wisdom, for you all to understand Pain
And the role that it plays in all that you know
For we hold the key to the records we seek
But to find them is quite the exhausting quest
The humans, and all the havoc they wreak
Could meet their own fate at the hands of the oppressed
In order to reach the Ultimate Goal
They must be taught of the storms that thunder within
Surrender to life, their selves as a whole
And accept the steep cost for all of their sins
They may not find Joy in an infinite flow
But maybe they'll understand the balance necessary
For all things in life, they die and they grow
And the weight on your shoulders is the Wisdom you carry

 

 

-This was an interesting one to write, as I really wanted to go in a different direction, flowing with the first stanza, buuuuut, as always, I let the words flow, and this is how it came out hahaha, I am still happy with it
