Go Ahead, Be Happy With And By Yourself

Go Ahead, Be Happy With And By Yourself

A Poem by Teddybearlee

A million writings on walls
About how you have to be happy with yourself
A million questions I have
About getting from here to there

Oh, is it that simple?
Just do it?
Just appreciate what you do have?
Just be thankful you're alive?

I think my brain may be different than yours
I think my soul may be made of different experiences than yours
My reality is that of a damned man cursed since birth
To seek answers nonexistent and seek a love impossible

It's not about needing approval, it's about needing one
The one, and yes, that is what I believe in
Why settle for less, I can't
I won't make something out of nothing

Happiness may be a cell within me
But it requires a spark to ignite it
That spark came and that spark went
And life can not be the same again

So dark, find happiness with in
One of the things that makes me laugh
Even though I'm happy for you if you do
But my goal in life was a love for two

And it's all or nothing
Its mission impossible
There's no other alternatives my mind believes in
Stubborn is named after me, I need, what I need
