I wish I didn’t know…
that one day every living thing must one day go
back to the dust from which it came.
I wish I didn’t know…
that sometimes people don’t get healed
and pain unleashed reveals itself in an avalanche of tears.
I wish I didn’t know…
That cancer is a monster and not just a sign of the zodiac
it doesn’t respect persons old or young and runs you ragged and tortures you before it’s done.
I wish I didn’t know…
friendships don’t always last until you grow old
sometimes death severs it’s hold.
I wish I didn’t know…
Life will give you bitter with the sweet
and bad things sometimes happens to the good folks you meet.
I wish I didn’t know…
That grief can last forever, it’s coping mechanisms that change
When you lose someone you love,
life is never quite the same.
I wish I didn’t know.
