Hunger For Happiness

The hunger for happiness is all I have ever asked for, I can't seem to grasp the happiness of life and hold on to it.
As soon as my hunger for happiness fills, Its gone like the dust in the wind.
My yearning for my hunger is so strong, that the pain of it I can't bare anymore.
Why must this hunger be so strong?
Why does it cripple my mind so?
This hunger for happiness will never really be completely fulfilled.
But my lonely mind just can't stop but to yearn for it.
My hunger for happiness is at a all time low,
The feeling of happiness will never let go.

This a little bit sounds like a hunger for happiness is an addiction that must be filled.
