The Thorns and The Bloom


When I begin to listen to
The dark whispers of woe,
I step back and remind myself
Of something I well know.
 
However rough my world may seem,
My life is still easy.
There are so many in world
Who suffer more than me.
 
When I wake up, I’m safe and warm,
As when I went to sleep.
And I don’t spend my days in fear
Fighting the urge to weep.

No life is perfect, without pain,
Yet mine is quite replete,
For though I walk among the thorns
The blossom is still sweet.
