is a reflection of what (and who) is around me
is the absence of worry—of what was, what is, or what's next

happiness to me
is the drive home after hanging out knowing i'll see my friends again later
is living my life without running away from ghosts and obligations

happiness to me
is when the rays of sunlight breach through the sky on a cloudy day
is when my words become honest to someone i just met with no judgement in return
