My stomach growls ferociously 
Yet food will not satisfy the hunger inside me
My body yearns for something more
Powerful and mighty
Craving the words of literature
Wisdom circulates from page to page

You always get off
On things I could never
Just grounded?
I would’ve been forced
To stand in a corner
For a few hours
Then slave over homework
All week     Always complaining

In these times of trial stay close to the lord. For in him you will find comfort throughout these troubling days. His heart is open. Ready to except and love you for who you are. He listens to your prayers. Answering them in unexpected ways.

Teacher
Mentor
Friend
All words that describe
What you ar to me

Teacher you,
Using perfect articulation
Captivating my attention
I yearn for your words
To burrow deep within my brain
Information I need 

Literature holds the answer to many problems. 
You just have to be willing
To look deeper than the surface.
