Go to the mirror and find
What is really in your life
Know you are more fortunate
Know you are more fortunate
Go to the mirror and find
Nothing is promised
What is really in your life
Is only sand in some hands
Know there is a sun
Know there is a sun

This poem was inspired by my realization of how spoiled I am. I hope to one day look at this poem and count my blessings.
