Curiosity is an oddity To desire to know A gift and a curse One may willingly bestow And to touch the knowledge of death May it's satisfaction bring about life May no mind in love with knowledge Be killed off, in the name of strife Curiosity, a game to behold as true Authentic in its nature But to be sure, that's not entirely true Like a tree, like love, it has many branches As each branch forms a full tree Curiosity could be built on fear Or the lust to unravel the mystery And not always the one who is curious satisfied Maybe they come out taller than they once were A gem in itself, a miracle Allowed a story untold before to occur
