A Conversation in my Head
It may be true that you and I
Are not so different after all
Teachers, students, see eye to eye
Despite our disparities, let words enthrall
Caught amidst the social norms
Drenched in dismay from years of storms
A student asks inside his head
Is my teacher one to dread?
A timeworn mirror still reflects the same
Image of a man once younger
Yet we rest in different realms, for shame
And deprive eachother of what we hunger
And so I claim in utmost truth
The differences between our youth
And older peers are not so vast
Affinities first, and discrepancies last
