The Smart Kid

Dominik


Some are regarded as smart,

Most of them are tricking others,

Their knowledge wide as an ocean,

But as shallow as a puddle,

True wisdom can only be achieved

If your knowledge is deep,

Its width does not matter.


I wish I had known that from the start.

I wish I would have taken the time to master one,

Not learn other things.

I wish I was not swayed by my friends

Into being the smart kid.

I wish I had realized sooner.

I wish for my knowledge to be deeper.

I wish to be wiser.


I wish for the ability to think.
