He falls
Into humanity
like a crashing wave
Intensely focused
Until he isn't
Humans are strange
He is stranger still
Useless
despite his might
It is an adjustment
Humans have heart
He never did
Until it hurt
Pain is the worst
But humans
They persevere
And Zhongli learns
He can too
It isn't easy
To shift focus
Years of his life
Spent high above
But on the ground
He feels alive
Like his heart will burst
He thought he'd be
Too old to learn
Guizhong used to
Liken him to a dog
"They will not learn
"New tricks," she'd said
All he does is learn
Every day is new
Watching others before
And after dawn
Eventually
He comes to a decision
This is the life which he prefers
