Happiness left a mark. He sliced through my thick skin, And the scars still remain. Happiness was forgotten. He was set aside, Dust suffocating his very existence. Happiness was fragile. I tightly grasped Happiness’ hands, And I watched him unravel mine and slip away. Happiness was strong. I thought I could take advantage, But he was the one with his hands around my neck. Happiness was a friend. I came to know him inside and out, And I looked forward to his embrace. Happiness was an enemy. He taunted me in ways I was unaware And watched me collapse. Now, I am left without Happiness, and I crave him.

Happiness
Happiness left a mark. He sliced through my thick skin, And the scars still remain. Happiness was forgotten. He was set aside, Dust suffocating his very existence. Happiness was fragile. I tightly grasped Happiness’ hands, And I watched him unravel mine and slip away. Happiness was strong. I thought I could take advantage, But he was the one with his hands around my neck. Happiness was a friend. I came to know him inside and out, And I looked forward to his embrace. Happiness was an enemy. He taunted me in ways I was unaware And watched me collapse. Now, I am left without Happiness, and I crave him.
