What have we learned at the end of the day?

After spending years in school
What have we learned
We learned the red means stop and green means go
We learned that peanutbutter and jelly is a genius mixture of chemicals
We learned that 1 +1 = 2 unless you are being a wise man and say a window in which case you are right as long as you are in philosophy and not in math.
We learned that books are windows of opportunity... when we do manage to read them
We learned that birds and bees are very promiscuous creatures
We learned that we all like, love and suffer from broken hearts,
We also learned "c'est pas grave" it's never as bad as it seems in the moment and we can also all get over it
We learned we aren't actually as fragile as we think, bone isn't as strong as stone but it's pretty tough
We learned smoking makes you look cool but it kills you so it's usually not worth the 20 seconds of fame but fuck it, it's addictive
We learned friends make great enemies and no one is perfect,
We learn we are all a bunch of randomly made and selected misfits finding ourselves
And these are some of the greatest years and memories we will ever have

I used to dream in infinite

I then learned structure

We compromised our dreams with reality
now we live it
