it is not until you have loved...
This poem was originally typeset in uppercase.
IT IS NOT UNTIL YOU HAVE LOVED
THAT YOU STARTED TO FEAR DEATH
IT IS NOT UNTIL YOU HAVE FALLEN
THAT YOU STARTED TO RISE
IT IS NOT UNTIL YOU'VE RISEN
THAT YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN TO LOVE
IT IS NOT UNTIL YOU HAVE REMEMBERED
THAT YOU STARTED TO LIVE
IRONICALLY
IT IS NOT UNTIL YOU HAVE STARTED TO LIVE
THAT YOU HAVE DIED
