Happiness!

You saw him today
The first time in weeks
And you couldn't stop giggling, and your knees got weak
When you talk to a friend that you haven't for a while
And you still see the friendship in their familiar smile
When you get back a test you were nervous for
Only to find that you got a high score
When you wake up to your favorite song on the radio
And when you walk down the hall and everybody knows
When you have chocolate chip cookies and lemonade for lunch
When you're cheeks are pink and you just have this hunch 
When you look in the mirror and are happy to find
That zit that was coming decided to hide
When you go all day without a trip or a stumble
And your stance and your posture "gives off" that you're humble
When you notice everyone smiles at the site of you
And your hair flips just right when you want it to
When you're eyes are sparkling, gleaming and bright
And you realize in the middle of the night
That this feeling you've had for days and for weeks
It's completely amazing....you're truly happy!
