I know as much
I know it now, and something more
Yes I've been wrong
But I've been wrong And I've been right

Notes of the same key
Resonate together and music is made
Birds of the same feather
Flock together and fly

Fire ascends
Water descends
Clouds follow the dragon
Winds follow the tiger

I know even more
More than I should, spirits and intuition
Yes I've been right
I've been right and I've been wrong

Heavenly things ascend
Earthly things descend
Fire clings and water flows
So does everything follow its kind

And then the dragon on the wing
Leaving the depths, reaching the sky
So is it with the sage and ordinary men
They are of the same kind, though far apart;

And when a sage appears,
All other men look to him with admiration and hope
I'm drunk, inspired by eastern philosophy, and trying to figure out what it really is with this girl I've been seeing. Maybe not the most straight forward poem, still I hope people enjoy it
