Thankful
I watch as the sky around me fades to black
The day turning itself into night
I watch the stars sprinkle themselves into the dark sky
Wondering if they rows of stars ever have an end
As I dig my feet into the soft grass
Inhaling the scent of a nearby campfire
I can’t help but be thankful
To truly be grateful for everything I have
All the people whom I love
The people who I know love me
It’s a safe thought
A happy escape
To know the ones you love
Love you too
