Grateful
Can you be grateful
And sad at the same time
Literally
Happy to be sad
I wonder
Because that’s where I am
Grateful for an opportunity
Sad in its presentation
And that’s truly a mystery
Is it a good thing
Or is it something
To be demurred
I don’t really know
It’s like a roller coaster of emotion
But in the end
Truth wins out
And so I’ll take
Grateful
Happy to have the chance
To wax and zip
