Happiness

Getting lost in my emotions,

The depression swallows my soul.

Losing this battle,

But I'm so close...

I can feel the warmth of happiness,

It cuts right through the cold.

Feels like I can touch it,

I'm getting so close.

Cutting loose the baggage,

I've been dragging all this time.

Feel the lightness of joy,

Happiness is almost mine!

I finally reach my happiness,

Only to find,

You've taken it with you,

It's no longer mine. . .
