Thank you mother,
Thank you father.
It didn’t work out, but…
I’m here!
Thank you uncertainty, for your certainty.
I am not invincible- I’ve broken many things.
Thank you childhood
And adolescence
Without you I could not be the age I am today.
Thank you… love, for a broken heart
And everything I am because of it.
Thank you, the super-ego…
Thank you friend,
Thank you… enemy
Thank you those watching closely, but could never quite see.
Thank you bravery-
I’m sorry fear.
Thank you…
Food,
Water,
Clothes
Morals.
Thank you, my bed!
Thank you, the living!
And for providing this space for me-us: the dead.
