I Reconcile

I don't complain as I tell this tale,
for he who complains doubts life, 
and I am a firm believer of life. 
I believe in the worth of its bitterness, 
mingled in each portion that I drink, 
from the cup of life. 
I believe in the ultimate mercy of these steel fingers that crush my soul!
