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
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
