Until... Poem by Agastya Taylor

Until you take the dreaded trail,
you would never know
if you succeed or fail.

Until you toil hard under the sun,
you would never know
the soothing shade on your burns.

Until you fall hard on the ground,
you would never know
how to reach to the top safe and sound.

Until you reach the peak of the hill,
you would never know
what awaits you the other side of the hill.

Until you nurse a broken heart,
you would never know
what love is, that has torn you apart.
