If You Have Never

You don't understand true happiness
If you have never felt true pain;
You can not become a therapist
If you have never gone insane.
You don't comprehend life's meaning
If you have never tried to have one;
You can't count your lucky stars
If you have never stared into the sun.
You will never really say "sorry",
If you have never felt any real regret;
You can not count on remembering life,
If you have never tried to just forget.
You can not call yourself depressed
If you have never been too sad to cry;
You will never really feel alive
If you have never had the guts to die...
