I'll take this all, One day I'll give it back, Sorry if most my words, Can't make up for what I lack. I thank you for your time, Though that I think I'll keep, Sometimes I seem to need it On the nights that I can't sleep. I don't have much to offer, Except that I am here; Doesn't mean much to most people, Unless I were to disappear. We don't know what we have Until it's no longer there; But I wouldn't want to be, So that someone would finally care. I like to live my life, And sometimes I laugh a lot; It's the loving part That I haven't really got. All these things run through my head, As I stare at the breaking dawn; Hopefully I get some sleep, I think as I loudly yawn. When all my thoughts quiet down I'll finally get some rest; Though my life seems cursed, I'm actually very blessed.
