I WANT TO SEE THE OTHER SIDE

I want to see with eyes of wonder
What's on the other side of pain
Behold the beauty and the splendor
Capture the rainbow, after the rain
I want to hear the sounds of living
Listen as my heart skips a beat
Hear what's on the other side of heartache
Not run away or have to retreat
I want to touch, to feel, explore
What painful feelings tried to ignore
I want to know how to feel alive
Experience love and live some more
I want to taste all that life has to offer
To taste and see that life is good
Relish every precious moment
To know I savored every moment I could
I want to live and breathe the scent of living
Be aware of it's essence there
Enjoy life's bouquet, life's sweet aroma
Take in the fragrance before it vanishes in thin air
I want to know the other side of sorrow
Get beyond the painful past
See the light at the end of the tunnel
Experience a little happiness, at last
