Happiness
Such of the world is of sad
Alongside grief
Falling into a hole where there is no escape
The rope of hope diminished by the chaos they internalize
Such of a world is lead
By the despair of the people
For the truth is blinded
Out of sight to them
By facades and lenses
That can and will kill them
Such of a world is in which we live
We haven’t fallen fully to this
For our hope still lies
But as you see the peace we want
Is coming from
Killing our environment and our kind
Of how is peace coming from such of a destructive act
How is the happiness to come from such
The peace we wish comes not from
Despair
Nor destruction
Rather for the love we have for others
The understanding we are all different
But all are one
That sole belief
Crumbles facades and breaks down reality
Into a sole living arena
Where there is not a battle
Rather a gathering of truth
Such of a truth comes a balance
That balance is connected to us
As well as the universe
For eternal greatness is not out of mankinds reach
Rather is closer than it seems
Such of peace is of happiness
All of the power is from self
