I am privileged
I have 'a voice'
I can speak
And no one will bother me for speaking my heart out.
The words define me as who I am.
I have 'a house'
It's not on a enchoched land.
It's not broken into stone and sand.
It's the place where I head back to.
I am privileged
I have 'friends'
They don't judge me,
They don't ask me what I eat, where I pray.
They love me for who I am.
I am privileged
I have 'work'.
Sometimes it's overwhelming.
but most of the time I love doing it.
It has made me who I am.
I am privileged
I have 'dreams'
There are fears, that it won't get fulfilled
But there are means to achieve it.
Hard work and resources are there for disposal.
It will make me what I want to be.
I am privileged
I still have 'my life'.
My tears, my fears,
my dreams, my screams,
my friends, my foes, hold me together.
