Window of My Heart

There is a window in my heart 
I keep it curtained rarely glancing within

If I open it for viewing, deep wounds within
will sadden me and others

There is another window which shows beautiful memories
I keep that window open, never put any curtains

I allow others to peek in and share my joy
Smile on their face, 
happiness in their heart
makes my day

My life has its miseries,  
If I keep them in my thoughts
it depresses me, I cry

For my own happiness
I just have forgotten them as dead past

Positive thoughts keep me happy 
I keep my mind in task at hand
Don't think much

I enjoy my short life 
doing all that gives me joy.
