I knew a man once, One filled with life. He spent every day passing flowers to strangers, Spreading joy through soft spoken words. All who met him left with a smile, And all who knew him found fondness in living. But as the days moved on, People began to change. He was told he had to be emotionless to be strong, and fearless to be flawless. He was pushed around by the wicked, Banished into the darkness. Everything he worked for wasn't worth it anymore, And he felt his heart hurting every second he lived. So now he's no where. And I don't know how to get him back.

his name was happy
I knew a man once, One filled with life. He spent every day passing flowers to strangers, Spreading joy through soft spoken words. All who met him left with a smile, And all who knew him found fondness in living. But as the days moved on, People began to change. He was told he had to be emotionless to be strong, and fearless to be flawless. He was pushed around by the wicked, Banished into the darkness. Everything he worked for wasn't worth it anymore, And he felt his heart hurting every second he lived. So now he's no where. And I don't know how to get him back.
i would miss him if I remembered what it was like to have him.
