#goodmood
I woke up in a good mood
a strange occurrence for me
something I only experience
once in a blue moon
or however that expression goes.
I woke up in a good mood
I felt alive for the first time in a long time
I smiled, laughed, joked
but this time the smile was real
and I looked forward to the rest of the day.
I woke up in a good mood
and everything was fine
until it was all crashing down again
a smile faltered, a laugh stifled, a joke lost
and suddenly my mood wasn't so great.
I woke up in a good mood
I promise that just a few hours ago
I was doing fine
better than I had been in a long time
and to say I don't know what happened would be a lie.
I woke up in a good mood
and I don't want to point fingers
but if I wanted to I could
I know whose at fault
and as much as I want to say it was me, it wasn't.
I woke up in a good mood
or at least I think I did
but maybe it was just another mirage
a sliver of false hope
that only lasted for a few hours.
I woke up in a good mood
but I don't think I will tomorrow
or the day after that
maybe never again
but I guess that's not really up to me.

let it make you happy
like a dead head
because you're pretty today
it's your song
somebody said thank you
they were glad to see you
you had a good time
it's ok
clear your mind
you have to do it for yourself
the world wants you to be angry
you can't hide from it
but the feeling is the chance
when it is upon you
take it
paint your face if you have to
look in the mirror
laugh about it
you feel like an out of tune guitar
but still you make music
that's how it works
a moment
you can't paint
but you made a line
and crossed it twice
then smeared it
red and yellow
just like your painted face
look at it
and laugh
let it make you happy
that's what just happened

Yellow crimson flowers floating in the breeze
Translucent figures, colors cascading
Like a jellyfish, contracting its form
Green light escapes the air
It's peppermint smell fills the leaves
Multicolored reflections of warm whispers
Suns rays evading the coarse earth
Releasing negativity, unraveling peace
Rhythmic harmonies and introspection
Love and happiness beat from the rhythm
It's center exudes soft petals of laugher and sweet memories
Kissing the pain and salty tears
Red jeans, vintage tee
Distant figures in the park , bodies close childlike and free
Red lips, crushed sassafras , pink sprinkles
Vibrant pigment , covering the crevices
The smell of old memories washed in satin and mosaic trinkets
