Lessons
Thank you pain for the trials,
Thank you suffering for the tears;
In this journey of wisdom,
I've learned how to be me.
There were marvelous moments,
I embraced them with bliss;
I met someone named loneliness,
She has taught me to bleed.
Thank you life for the experience,
Thank you night for the thoughts;
Books were friends, sometimes lovers,
I've been wrestling with both.
In a sky full of lessons,
Where the teacher was missed;
Life itself was a subject,
That I passed with a B.
