I know why cats eyes sob
The contentment contained in a purr
What to do with a fallen star

What it is to be captivated
Why icebergs drown
Why we should walk
                                      In our own shoes

That mortality's a phase
              Experience my greatest teacher

That want and require aren't the same
                                         But both inspire

My worst enemy's kept in
A mirror the time taken
For a sparrow to exhale

How nothingness conceals all
                The clarity of silence

That life unfolds
As we choose
Based on experience
Of how we expect
                                           Unless it doesn’t
              Because you can’t live it that way
