The Pursuit of Happiness

happiness is to be oblivious of pain. Then again pain tells me I'm alive Happiness is to be alive to life. Then again some deeds of men disgust me Happiness is to be oblivious. Oblivion is not a goal Open that one The one with the frosted neck Happiness is a dream

A superb write with a realistic and true conclusion. True happiness is a dream - a mirage. One can't have happiness by pursuing it. A salient characterstic of happiness is 'it can't be had unless given by another'. Happiness is disloyal and pain is of proven fidelity. -Mohammad
