Nothing Gained

Knowledge slips out between the cracks

of a mind that never cared anyway

whisper in the ear a million truths

watch them fade away

see the world we touch with open hands

but never truly feel what we leave behind

watch our feet brush the land

too lost in our own mind

we are all part of this creation

the sun never shines the same

no one makes the connection

this is a world that we could tame

knowledge only slips away

from minds that don't care

the world has so much to say

but we are unaware
