Vega Lyra

 
I’ve crashed with exhaustion for days
I’ve been depressed lost in a haze
I’ve had a dry spell in my inkwell
When I fell and felt those years were hell
And just when I wanted to be dead
The best years of my life were still ahead

I’ve had yearning for knowledge
Burning for more degrees beyond college
A thirst like I’ve walked the Sahara
A hunger for data
I’ve wanted to expand my mind
But now feel like I’m running out of time

Education has helped me in life
A guiding light through strife
When in dark phases I read the pages
Learning some wisdom from the sages
Like stars in the night
Offering a leading light
