A rose for
my beautiful rose
whom I love.
A kiss for
my gorgeous queen
of my kingdom.
I pray for
our eternal love,
happiness and life.

Serenity filled the whole existence.
Arising and rising above all the distance.
Revived by your shade.
Affinity within all what you've said.
Happiness redefined, you're one of a kind.

Looking into the void
Trying to find hope
Looking into the void
Trying to find promise
Looking into void
Trying to find happiness
Looking into the void
But you weren't there anymore

Deep as the ocean
Falls in love like rain
But her heart is as cold as ice
She's a vapor in the air.
With soul as pure as the sea
Her happiness rages like the river
She is no different to a water
She's something I can never hold.

She inspires me
She tells me the truth
Difficult sometimes
Helps me out of scrapes
Does not interrupt
Enthuses me
Shares happiness
Waits while I cry
Encourages
She like me
She listens
She is my
Truthful
Helpful
Friend

he'll think of her
and what she is
perhaps what she was
perhaps what she never sees
in the sweet evenings of summer
nights became morning
endless laughs and story telling
she is what she is and
she might see what she's worth
- she deserves the first letter of each line

Stumbling through existence
having passive days and active nights
your happiness a facade
contemplate promises were made
wonder are they kept safe
but past is a cloud of haze
don't look any further don't turn your face
it was dawn when i met u it'll be dusk when we call it a day.

tonight I leaned on the pillow of tears,
of memories, of your blue gaze,
I leaned on the same pillow of yours for years,
I gathered your tears inside me,
and I converted them to happiness,
and then I cried too,
I cried so you can hug happiness, when you rest your head on the pillow again.

To say I love you
Could never do my feelings justice
For a thousand years I could search
And still never truly find a way to tell you
How much I truly love you
For you are my happiness
My strength
My soul
My heart
My world
For this list could never end
So, I’ll simply say I love you

I love of girlfriend
She’s so funny and playful.
She has rife calm smiles
Funny personalities
When she walks I feel happy

I love my boyfriend
He’s too funny and playful.
He’s calm rife smiles
Funny personalities
when he walks I feel happy

~I daily cover her with prayers
as I envisioned a happiness we'd share
spiritual soul filled kisses
of the breath God's giving us abruptly stating
it's yet still it's God whom we trust and forever will~

There's a place in this world
That you don't think exists
It's so full of love
And happiness doesn't quit
It's not on a map
And even if you were blind
You could look to your heart
And there you would find
This place does exist
So quaint in its charm
Where's the place that I speak of?
It's here in my arms

Happiness, in the warmth of that place.
Happier than the biggest smile on my face.
Happiness, between the pit and the pat.
Happily in your heart, I've safely sat.
I say these words, so I may reach out.
And in your soul, there'll be no doubt.
With these words, our love I'll tend.
To us, to happiness, to the never end.

I spend all of my mornings thinking of you
Then once morning's over, afternoons too
Now I'm not complaining, make no mistake
I wouldn't change anything, no how, no way
The smile on my face that others do see
Is manifest happiness because you're with me
Oh not in the physical, that's for the day
When we can love freely and get carried away

It can be easy to give into depression and sadness.
It's always knocking on the door
Staring in the window
Hiding in the closet
Laughing in the mirror
Laying in the bed
but I prefer happiness and love
She is sharing her heart
She is looking into my eyes
She is smiling in my direction
She knows who I am. . . and still,
She is always there for me

Just enough that is but a gentle push,
an everlasting breeze that i provoke,
quickly I am your right to never ponder,
unbound you are, never stepped on,
ever in your heart in absolute euphoria,
listen to the whispers coming soon,
in that light, the light i once flourished,
never to another and only you are,
eternally you are in my happiness...

She’s my new confidante
A workmate in school
Her cuddly attitude
Thought she is cool
We talk about heartbreaks
Laugh our foolishness
We think about problems
Find our happiness
We’re pretty identical
Like old best pals
We can sense everything
Feeling same like cool gals
We’ll hold it till end
Till we made it so far
We’ll be in an endless trip
Catch those little stars!

It is hard for me to resonate
with my past self, but I respect her
and the things she endured through.
She went through so much darkness
and confusion, but she kept her dreams alive—
and that is what I think still resonates
today—that her dreams, her light,
her ideas didn’t die with her innocence,
or her hope, or her happiness.
Her dreams continue to manifest
into life, and fulfillment, and forgiveness.

Love me sweetly
I will you
I'll make sure
The things I do
Are all the things
You want me to
Your happiness
Is what I seek
Say my name
When at the peak
No need for words
No need to speak
I'll know the point
When you are there
Vanilla rose
Floats in the air
Now go to sleep
Without a care
And when you wake
It's real, you'll know
Right next to you
Is no pillow
It's not a dream
Or marshmallow
It's me...

My name is season.
Come rain, sunshine, I will always be there for you.
Come spring, summer, autumn or winter, I will always be present.
I will always provide you with warmth from my bonfire of happiness, provide you strength with my pillars of motivation engraved with your name on them.
Just like a mattress, I will cushion you with joy and a fountain of never ending laughter for you’re my source of joy that streams down my heart.

Maybe it's in the elegance of your hair falling like a gown?
Or the majesty of you; invisible, but you do wear a crown
A smile like no other, in defiance of every frown
Is it just me, or does happiness follow you around?
To just hear the beauty of your voice renown
The pools of light within your eyes, I certainly could drown
They are ethereal; not often, though, do stars fall down
So worthy is your acquaintance; it brought me to this town

happy am i to scream and shout
my everlasting love for you as i stick my chest out
excitement extends beautification like laughter in the rain
happiness provides hope and dissipates all that causes pain
what is inevitable in life is now a delicate feather so lightweight
how i love the way to bring me to this of so content state
i know i will enjoy this cool water forever with you
for you put on no airs and the nature of your love is so true

Life's a game of chances
I took my chance with you
I've never been so happy
I guess dreams do come true
You're my knight in shining Armour
You're as gentle as the breeze
I think I fell in love that day
I was numb from head to knees
Firstly there was no-one
I was dying deep inside
Suddenly from nowhere
You're around me like the tide
You've changed my life dramatically
All my hurt has disappeared
Now I see much happiness
Instead of all I feared.

Verse

Happy where I am
Some people wish they were anywhere
but where they are
Looking for happiness somewhere
out beyond the stars
Satisfaction and contentment for them
is sure to be in some other place
Home is just too boring, happiness just
disappears without a trace
Me, I'm different, I no longer feel the need
to continue to roam
I'm happy here with you, with our simple life
in our happy place called home.

A rose.
I know of a rose that is expected to be very pretty.
It shines in the morning sunlight like no other
It is always blossom at the right time of day.
Like a smile, when it wakes up.
It has no thorns it makes your day sad.
You can sit and watch it has the sun hits it
To bring out the prettiness.
it carries the site of joy within and brings the happiness of joy to you.
This rose is why every man who thinks his wife or girlfriend is a rose to them.
