The more you know the less you'd think there is to learn. But with substance and knowledge comes depth and the yearn. Sometimes just to impress or to wash away regrets. Diving into the shallows for monetary gain. An indulging sophistication or fifty shades of gray. The proof of personal identification can slowly start to change. Started out an infatuation. But we slowly loose our way. Now flush and with palpitations even my breathing has changed. The knowledge of the beholder will never be washed away. Yes even as an individual. A common sentence can whisk us all away. Somethings we learn in moderation. Afraid of what others will say.
