174 - Glad I Did

I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I didn't know
About the world,
'Cause I set out
With open eyes.
****
I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I didn't grow
To become old,
Because I left behind
A childless world.
****
I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I didn't show
Up to the meet,
'Cause they cast out
The cognizant.
****
I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I did let go,
And reached beyond,
Not afraid to be
Thrown off the edge.
****
I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I did find fear,
Just to see
If I'd back down
Before the end.

I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I did those things
That got me here,
'Cause it's so so clear
To be right here.
****
I'm glad I did,
I'm glad I didn't know
About the world,
'Cause I set out
With open eyes.
