Not LIke ThemA Poem by The Last PhilospherOne of a kind In a world so broken The right path Only he can find A hero of the people One not afraid to fight Yet not loyal to any flag Not in the front lines Not there for every life No, not like them A meaningless weapon An impenetrable shield A tool for a greater plan Yet no property to a king or queen Not the kind to bend the knee Not meant for bloodshed or terror Though capable No, not one of them A spiritual man One with whom the gods bother But he's no prophet Not really a man of faith Not the type to go to church Not the type to pray exclusive to one No, not like them Someone in love Someone who cares A person who thinks them before me Consent before achievement Not one to use the right words Even if he knows them well Not one who lives his life with the one who matter most... No matter how much he wants to Not one who can live a life of joy And live just for her No, not like that at all A seeker of knowledge A true scholar One who sees the true value of knowing And thirst's for the truth But he has no teacher Just whispers lost in the wind No school to fully immerse No chance to focus on an abstract No chance to broaden a focus He didn't have a chance to grow before his time to nurture No chance to e part of that garden No, not one of those One of a kind In a swarm of many He might be chosen He might be lost He may be gifted He may be cursed As he beats the world And the crowd in in awe As he falls in love As his heart gets broken The only thing he know: Not one of them.
