My eyes hurt because I force myself to keep them open. When I close my eyes I see scenes I cant forget, I have regrets. I'm a sinner and yet, I complain. I complain that people don't remember my name. I complain when I get the wrong order. I complain about life. But I'm grateful for the strength in my legs. For my legs that support my body when walking. The ability to hold a pen and write. Sense of humor, friends, family and air. I am thankful for my eyes, they help me see. Not just see what I have now, also what in the future will be.

(Un)thankful sinner
My eyes hurt because I force myself to keep them open. When I close my eyes I see scenes I cant forget, I have regrets. I'm a sinner and yet, I complain. I complain that people don't remember my name. I complain when I get the wrong order. I complain about life. But I'm grateful for the strength in my legs. For my legs that support my body when walking. The ability to hold a pen and write. Sense of humor, friends, family and air. I am thankful for my eyes, they help me see. Not just see what I have now, also what in the future will be.
