Happiness 


Happiness is not something comfortable
its a cloud over my eyes
blinding me from the things of the day
telling my brain what it may

so I hide away in these memories
reminding myself what to see
knowing all of these
will slowly fade away

Happiness is a temporary state
gone faster than light
leaving you empty inside and out
wondering whats this about

Happiness is something that surrouds me
but never invades
staying away in fear of death
i can feel it on my breath

Happiness is a cold knife
peeling away at my seems
tearing away all that holds me
watching it fall and flee
