Thankful?
For the world?
For the gift of life?
Of course I am grateful
I accept that it might seem petty
But I am not saying I am not that.
I am thankful for everything
But my flesh burns from sorrow
My mind is rotted with fears
And I because of that I cannot sleep
My dreams show I'll receive no tomorrow
For the future is unwritten
And without guarantee
Why shouldn't I leap?
