It Occurs To Me - Villanelle

This is my attempt at a villanelle - 19 lines, two rhymed lines, and two rhymed sounds.

It Occurs To Me

As I sit here
it occurs to me
here in my chair

Life appears to be not fair
and nothing really is free
as I sit here

I ponder the future
where will we all be?
here in my chair

Will we be far or near
sometimes it worries me
as I sit here

Would I give it all here
to truly be me, be free
here in my chair

I lift my face to the air
and give it all to thee
as I sit here
here in my chair
