An Ivory Tower Always Crumbles by Scott Simmons








Mankind’s ignorance sank eden into grief.
Our paradise forever lost.

Was it because God was completely unmerciful?
Or simply our own arrogance blinding us to reach beyond our place?

Regardless of the answer it’s not up for me to say.
However knowledge isn’t inherently evil, it only has a cost.

So always think about whatever your truly asking to know.
You may find the price far greater than what you wanted to pay.

Nothing in life is ever free. So was it worth it?
