Through the white light

I sense your presence near

I listened to your words

The wisdom oh so clear

You need to experience pain

To know comfort.

You need to experience poverty

To know wealth.

You need to experience loneliness

To know friendship.

You need to experience death

To know life.

You need to experience hate

To know love.

You need to experience sadness

To know happiness.

You need to experience failure

To know success.

You need to experience anger

To know relief.

You need to experience danger

To know safety.

You need to experience imprisonment

To know freedom.
