Alex Sonmez explores reasons to be grateful during difficult times
Blessing #1
You are such a blessing,
I never take your bliss and holy skin for granted,
How can he leave you when you light
Up the room, in these dark days?
Blessing #2
People don’t know what a blessing is,
Until they witness it but you came out of the blue,
When I was bleeding with non-existent stars
You took me to the bright side of the moon.
Blessing #3
Please don’t be with another,
Your fragility makes my blue skin thicker,
Thanks to the red roses you laid upon it
Purple is my new favourite colour.
Blessing #4
You took all my flaws, and now I’m flawless,
I didn’t know what I was feeling
My feelings were nameless
So I named them after you.
Blessing #5
I’m not feeling sad, I’m not feeling happy,
I’m feeling blessed. I’m feeling connected to you
Love a word without meaning,
Soaking up every moment with you is a blessing.
