If I didn't know
would it matter
would pain really hurt
If I didn't know laughter
would I be afraid of darkness
If I had never seen the light
and the horizontal peak
that glimmers in my sight
If I didn't know the rain
and the wetness that it bring
the melody in music
when I sing
what would it really mean
If I didn't hear
the first breath of
a newborn babe
see ripples in the ocean waves
difference between night and day
would everything be okay
If I didn't know
the sensation in a kiss
or smell the aroma of the finest dish
what would I have missed
If I didn't know
how to distinguish between
love and hate , what is poor or great
would this have been a big mistake
If I didn't know
could I appreciate optimum health
If I didn't know how sickness felt
and be surrounded by
love ones and friends
or to be lonely in this enormous world
all by myself
I am glad that I know
and I feel privileged to except
all that I do know
to the deepness of its depths
