I want Happiness
How do I do this?
challenges that try a persons soul
Life is torn and tattered
Regrets and broken hearts
They all tear at the person I was!
Pulling at every last string
But the world keeps turning
Its as if im not here
my soul is broken
I am scarred
I am changed
Changed for the better?
Maybe, changed for the worst
The anger boils inside
All it would take is that one thing
To send me over edge
I still somehow manage a smile
In these troubled times
I manage to grab a foothold,
A grip on this madness
I still pull myself up one step at a time
Through the fighting and the screaming
I push through to the light at the end of the tunnel
Carrying myself through
The problems I face day to day
You wouldn’t understand
The constant struggle to find
Happiness in this cruel world
Ive suffered some great losses
People that you love gone
Before you know it, they are gone
Never coming back
That moment it hits
The way it tears at the soul
Its not right
Its enough to drive a person mad
But I still struggle through this never-ending darkness
Hoping to find something
That will mend my soul
Happiness is all I desire
But agony still finds it way at my doors
The knives of sadness slicing away
But there is still a small light
At the end of this long tunnel
I will fight my way through
The constant feeling of everybody is against you
I no longer want it
I want happiness
