Gratitude

Thank you, North Star

Thank you, gratitude
My hope
At the edge of darkness
Everything feels a complete mess

But there you are
My North Star
You give me something to live for
When perseverance seems no more

I thank you for one more day
Of keeping the pain at bay

Your Sweet Face

I Rest

Lull Me
