Happiness

Love runs deep, much deeper than the soul
It leaves us confused and full of holes
We claim we want the best for those we love
Yet we smother them with idealism from above

What is truth I often wonder?
We search and still we flounder
The shame is not with failure
The shame lies with those who forget adventure

I laugh, cry, reflect, empathize and wonder
All that is possible as mighty as thunder
My heart is very big and grand
Always willing to protect and take a stand

The beauty of the world is simple and pure
Solving emptiness and loneliness with a cure
The sun will rise tomorrow and I will enjoy the warmth
Friendship and love I will carry forth

I believe we can love each other
As if we were sister and brother
I embrace the emotions before my eyes
As many people forge forward and try

We try with whatever means we have at present
Our love continues and is never completely spent
No matter what happens in this world I will extend my hand
It will resonate across the land

Only because it is pure and exemplifies love
God know what lies in my head as he watches from above
This brings me peace each day
I am here to stay

I have been challenged that’s for sure
How else would you find a cure?
The wrinkles on my face are never ignored
I am just wondering how to find my lord

I have been able to put forth my hand today
I am sure you will guide me along the way
I’m nothing special, this I know
Yet when I am able to help someone my face glows


The world is good no matter what I have seen
On my true friends I have leaned
This world has potential
And giving up is not on the table
