versedispenser Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 Had sorrow not met me With a slap on my face I would have dwelt on My foolish walk Had tragedy not shown Life's balancing acts Happiness I would never have known. Had the tears of bitterness Never surfaced through these eyes Haughtiness and scorn I would have passed Had sorrow not allowed My infirmities to limit me Delusions I would surely have amassed. Sorrow enriched my otherwise Charmed, perfect life And intimately led me To stretch forth my hand And walk alongside those Who are equally hurting And make them strong Once again to stand. Had sorrow not enrich And ennobled me Never would I dig deeper Through the depths of my heart Had I not been cloaked With the garment of loneliness I could never tell That joy also plays its part.
