I. 

Do you need all the answers?

Of all the question of the world has to offer, 

You may seek a limitless wisdom, 

But be careful of what will you become.

II.

Like the story of King Solomon, 

King David's youngest son, 

He ask God for wisdom rather than wealth and treasures,

He already knew what the world has to offer. 

III. 

Because of great wisdom he obtain so much wealth,

Even he can count the stars in a single breath.

He expand his kingdom on a vast scale, 

In terms of knowledge, no one would ever dare. 

IV. 

Unbeatable in terms of mental combat, 

More fiercer than an actual mortal combat, 

He don't need to lift his finger, 

On a battle to won you over, 

V. 

Because of great influence he loss his faith, 

Ego, lust, and greed make him fall from grace, 

He abandon God who love him most, 

Until such time his kingdom turns bad to worst. 

VI. 

If you seek answers don't ask me then, 

No one can tell you of what or when, 

If you truly believe getting an answer can give you peace of mind, 

You need to practice patience bare it in mind. 

VII. 

You seek the path to maturity,

You prefer to be alone to conquer your insecurity, 

That kind of mentality will only severe your bond, 

Bonds with your cousins and family, don't let it waste to none. 

VIII. 

If you desperately seek answers, don't be,

You will encounter it soon so take it easy, 

So if you can wait, it only a matter of time,

Maturity is like a fruit that needs time to ripe.

IX. 

Soon you will know responsibility,

Obligations and commitment and learn to be ready,

In the path of wisdom you need to have humility & faith, 

Unless people see you as prideful bound by hate.

X. 

Wisdom is share to those people who are willing, 

Don't spout your thoughts on those people 

who plays deaf in their hearing, 

People who's heart are hardened by time,

With full of ego swallowed by their pride.

XI. 

Don't waste your thoughts on the fools, 

They see you as cunning and prideful,

Don't let your pride takeover you also,

On the situation that will hurt your ego.

XII. 

Lastly, the wisdom of the righteous may caught your interest, 

Read the BIBLE, if you find it a challenge more than a test, 

The word BIBLE is a abbreviation of some sort.

It means: Basic Instructions Before Leaving the Earth. (B.I.B.L.E.)
