Learn My Lessons

One of my greatest character flaws: 
how I like Time being out of order
and Space to erase when misplaced

I find answers for my own questions
without even trying, meaning I answer
before I have even heard their question

Though I'll never understand what I know
until I can answer their questions, too
then, I will to truly learn my lessons

I have forgotten far more knowledge
than some find in their whole life
now's Time I need to make it mine

[Original: untitled poem | 5 December 2021]

My greatest character flaw is
I like time out of order.
I find my answers before for the answers
before I’ve even heard their questions.
But I’ll never understand what I know
until I answer their questions, too learn my lessons.
I’ve forgotten more knowledge
than some find in their whole life.
