I never knew..

I never knew leaves fall
I never knew a breeze can turn into a blizzard
I never knew rains could be acidic
I never knew every breath could be a struggle
I never knew the earth could tremble
I never knew the sands always get washed away
I never knew the lonely worm gets picked anyway

I never knew what was coming
I never knew when it went
I never knew what I would be
I never knew what I am

Ah,
I never knew sun shines through clouds
I never knew trees danced with the breeze
I never knew the sea whispers secrets of life
I never knew that panacea was a child's smile
I never knew a grandma's touch was the softest that you longed for
I never knew that the birds sing the sweetest song
I never knew a butterfly was so colourful

Until I did.
