Nothingness/Happiness

Hello silence,
You're my addictive fake version of peace.
Hello England,
You're my cold illusory hall of dreams.

It took me a lot to realise
That happiness doesn't have a shape
or a price,
Happiness is an infamous invention;
It is NOTHING, and nothing is

Me
Merry-go-round, the life -
Having fun or puking, you never know.
I should get out and stop this game
of going round
But then again it would mean incertain
wandering around.

(Which could be good if you don't believe
in Heaven or Hell.
Everyone goes to their own empty purgatory after-life,
waiting for NOTHING - yes, once again - nothing is everywhere
and nowhere, too.
We're condemned to everlasting expectations.

Silence. Illusions. Never reality. Never - ever - peace.)

This was an excellent piece, and now I regret that it took me so long to read it. You brought up some very thought provoking points. Great job.

An interesting poem that taps the mind and draws in the reader with a good deal of evocative appeal.

[Karli]

You are a remarkable writer. This is very poetic, and the emotion is spot on. :)

[Coyote Poetry]

The poem open the door to many questions. Your words are true. Happiness come from within. We must find some kind of peace and pleasure in our life. World is a merry-go-round. Each day never know what may happen. Sometime need to dream and hold on to hope. Complete poem was outstanding. Your poetry is always strong and have a purpose.

I think sometimes we have to create our own happiness. This is nicely written.

Maybe.. just maybe.. happiness is somewhere near.. where u haven't looked at.

You're my addictive fake version of peace."

I love the way you used the fonts to show the emphasis you're putting on each stanza to reflect the view given. Excellent work!
