i'd rather live
not knowing all the
answers to life
i'd rather not know
how deep the ocean is
or how the world looks
from end to end--
or why we try to make sense
out of stars that align
so we can call each other
star-crossed lovers
if i knew all the answers
i wouldn't have to read books
or anything at all
all i want is, when i'm
on my deathbed, the last thing
that i want to know is:
i've lived a life and i
didn't know much
but i lived long enough
to know what
happiness is.
