Happiness
Life is too damn hard! And it shouldn't have to be.
Ironically enough, we inflict more pain on ourselves than anybody.
You think that this life would give you a break!
Putting more on your shoulders than a person can take.
Yet we strive on! Praying for better days ahead.
Neck deep in the negative, focusing on the glimpse of positive instead.
You see, "Happiness" is a state of mind.
Knowing this fact, could put you a step ahead everytime.
The mind is powerful, the more you think about it the more you'll see it's true.
The "Happiness" you desire, is a sacrifice you must make for you.
To be caught up in love is never as easy as it seems.
It takes two working through it, to find the happy medium in between.
Compromising , letting the little things go, may be easier said than done.
But without hard work and effort the battles scarcely won.
So be who you are! And say what you feel!
Life's too short! To be anything but real!
So regardless of what might have , or has been, or will eventually be said.
At the end of the day its you that goes home to lye in your bed .
