He’s so satisfied with this life,
I’m envious.
It’s like he’s got it all figured out:
How to live in peace with himself,
With everyone around him.
That love is a feeling
One that should be universal,
And not an object
Or person.

He is not seeking out a lover
He is not seeking to be rich and famous.
He may not be seeking anything, actually.
Except maybe adventure.

That is so admirable
And quite incredible if you ask me.
An evolutionary living in a primitive world.
I wonder if he’s lonely
Or feels that no one can relate.
I wish i could talk with him forever
Let him tell me all the things he knows
As I sit there in awe.
But I no longer have that luxury; that privilege.
