Happiness

The night has hit it's peak
The air has became cold
The street is soundless but those few cars
It's now 3am

Why am I still up?
I just wasted the last 3 hours..
Did I not enjoy it?
Absolutely not.
But am I happy?
No. Not really.


I laugh but it's hollow
I smile but I'm frowning
I socialize but I'm alone
I'm affectionate...
But really I'm absent

What is happiness?
The sound of laughter?
The sight of a smile?
The absence of sadness? Maybe.

I really should be sleeping...

Happiness is a rare delicacy
something that has been overlooked
It's hard to taste
Sometimes hardly tangible

There is one thing that' makes me sad,
but it is also the only thing that i find joy in...
Tell me, is love the experience of every emotion?

Tears

Tears Tears why do you chase me?
Is there no one else to catch tonight but me?
Should you hunt me down until I'm conquered by your power?

What is your purpose?
Will you not accept my plead?
Can you not sympathize with my overwhelming misfortunes?

Tears Oh Tears, please let me be, go from me. Please... please leave me alone.
