Mr. Study

From me;
You blur my sight like the eye in the sky
You ring in my ears like the birds of night
You circle my mind like a nagging fly
You push against me and all my might

From him;
I know what you know not
You hate me because you forgot
That all I am you need to know
For you to fly and fail no more

From me;
Is the truth really what you speak?
Do not take me for a fool
Can you take me to the peak?
And get me trough this hell called school?

From him;
Behold! My friend, behold!
These words I speak to you
I’ll show you where to go
With ease and clarity too

From me;
Will you please then show me how?
To take off and fly so free
Will you please then show me how?
Oh master of master, Mr. Study

From him;
Hard work of course
And perseverance too
But love of knowledge
Surpasses those two
