What makes you happy?
  Is it the smile of the one you love lying next you, still asleep?
  Or the bittersweet commercial of a loved pet that makes you weep?
  Maybe the look that person you desire gives you that makes you weak?
  Perhaps overcoming that conflict that forced you to your knees?
  A moment in the mirror where you proudly accept what you see?
  Or you laugh and feel genuinely satisfied because for once you feel free?
  Maybe the scars healed over and the pain ceases to be?
  Is it when you can finally do something out of want instead of out of need?
  You can breathe again after years of suffering through grief?
  The love of your life promises to always be there to provide you relief?
  Tell me please
  What makes you happy?
