    Not To Be

    I can not watch the sunrise
    nor hear the oceans roar
    I can not see the skies of blue
    up where the eagles soar
    I can not smell the rain that falls
    on a summers afternoon
    I will never know the stars at night
    nor the fullness of the moon
    I can not be your comfort
    Should your heart be broken
    I can never feel the love you give
    from words that you have spoken
    I can never share the joy you feel
    on any given day
    I can not even if I try
    no matter just how hard I pray
    I can not stop to smell the roses
    nor feel the pain upon it’s thorn
    You decided I was not to be
    So I wasn’t even born
