teachers transmit their knowledge
in public
to more people at a time
this is how you discover science
books send their message
in public
to just one person
and this is how you discover erudition
love is bestowed upon you
only in privacy
in a way that is
unique and unrepeatable
so this is how you find out
what has
still remained undiscovered

Poem from the Alignment of thoughts collection by Mihai Brinas (Goodreads Author).
