A wonder

"Once I met a man, Full of mysteries and full of stories to tell I was young, I was hiding behind a nearby wall , listening to his words and thoughts I always liked to listen To older people's stories they were always more interesting than any other's worries I learned about who he was, my eyes light up with awe I was thinking and thinking I thought : "he probably is tired"... Having so many people to deal with So many problems daily So many houses to carry And many cries to watch People must be expecting him to solve every little problem Without placing in their minds The billions of humans he has to cherish And his worries and the screams he must hear. The screams in his head that he has been desperately trying to shut out And the deep feelings he might have and the desire no one must have ever heard about Or all the love and the want behind that cold and cautious face filled with curiosity and knowledge"
