Thankful

by @mela

I'm thankful for God I'm infinitely blessed And without Him I'd have no strength I'm thankful for my family They're my pillar in this world My support system My purpose I'm thankful for my dog I've never known such an unconditional love My dog is my light An extension of me I'm thankful for my friends The ones that have my back And tell me the truth We laugh together, think together Expanding our minds I'm thankful for the boy Who gives me his whole heart Says I'm his saving grace He makes me feel worthy Of the world I'm thankful for my university The thing that gives me hope Makes me feel like I have direction And a fighting chance in this society I'm thankful for the mistakes For they taught me how to grow And better myself Be the real me I'm thankful to those who have wronged me The liars, players, cheaters, and users They've shown me what I really deserve And what not to tolerate I'm thankful for nature Where I find peace in solitude The flowers, the sun, the moon, and stars They're my guide to faith and positivity Lastly, I'm thankful for my poetry Even though I'm not the best It's given me a place to express myself When I had no where else to go
