Some Things You'll Never Know

Some things you'll never know
never a glancing light to show
what's right in front of you
what to be, what to do
well who knows when the wind blows, anyway
gonna find the right path to take one day

Some places you'll never go
the way may be blocked even though
it looks so promising from afar
want to exchange where my feet are
to where my heart longs to be
the songs inside me I will yet give voice
yes, I will rise into the skies of free choice

Some things you'll never know
sometime it just goes to show
some things aren't meant to be known
at least not until your heart has grown
beat beat beating in time
perfectly structured in rhyme

Most days I'm just not sure
if this is real or just a blur
signs in a foreign language
light from a burning bridge
warms my lost little heart while I go
snowflakes fall in a soft, dull glow

Some things you'll never know
it goes to show
in the tangle ebb and flow
nothing is predestined to be
you'll see
nothing gained is nothing happy
stolen life and love
never what you were dreaming of

"Some rides don't have much of a finish;
that's the ride I took." --Gin Blossoms, '29'

Some very profound lines in your thought-provoking poem! The following lines really stuck out for me and are memorable!

"some things aren't meant to be known
at least not until your heart has grown"

~ This I believe to be true, as well. All is revealed when the time is right ~ and when we are ready for it!
