Happiness is elusive
In the heart that laments
This gorgeous life
Radiant with love
Overshadowed
By hollow promises
And hedonistic pleasures
Reality we present ourselves
In the pursuit
Along the wrong path
Passing on the flames
Of destruction
Life is much more
Than exhaling and inhaling
Toxic fumes of anger and apathy
Raise your consciousness
To elevate to a higher plane
Of reality which exists
Beyond the realm of mundane
Happiness is not elusive
More so, we tend to run away
From an alien feeling
Life is much more precious
A gift from eternity
Cherish beauty in your heart
Keep the flames of hope burning
To take you along the path
Of happiness
