You Don't Know

You don’t know

How you influence me.

You don’t know

That I learn from you.

For that, my family,

I am grateful.

You don’t know

How much you mean to me.

You don’t know what I would for you.

For that, my friend,

I am grateful.

You don’t know

What I think.

You don’t know

How much I drown.

For that, my loved ones,

I am grateful.

I don’t know

I don’t know what you plan for me.

I can only plan for you.

For that, my future,

I am grateful.

I don’t know

What you think of me.

I can only guess.

For that, my life,

I am grateful.
