I think a child
is the only one who knows pure happiness,
yet is the only one
who doesn't know how to recognize it.

I strive to be happy like a child,
yet living in a broken world puts up barriers in my head.
I yearn to be light spirited,
to never let my positive ideas
succumb to the wishes of the world.

I hope society never gets to me,
forcing me to work for materialistic things.
I hope I never forget how important hapiness is.

   In questioning what you want to be,
question what makes you happy.
Live like a child at heart.
Find the positive; the happiness in every situation.
