My State Of Mind

IN THE GRAVE OF THE MIND

One day I took time to look back

To reflect on my past

I started counting my blessings

All the opportunities that came my way

All the help and support I got

The love and care bestowed on me

Reflect on how I walked through thorny roads

And fought for my principles

I really backtracked

To see where I was coming from

But I stopped halfway

When I realised that I was crying

I was angry with myself

For not being grateful

And taking everything for granted

The tears washed away all the strength

I just stood there feeling guilty

But I finally managed to kneel down

Slowly and thoughtfully

I said to my LORD

I am sorry for not being appreciative

Thank you for everything

And teach me to be content.
