Happiness Is

Illustrated by  Hilary Larson

Happiness

Happiness is

overly fantasized

bullshit

 

Struggles

 

We were alone

I was alone

I am alone

You are far gone

 

Freedom

 

I watched the birds

in autumn

and believed

I was with them

 

Headspace

 

My fingertips

brushed

the silence

of the clouds

 

Winter’s Confidence

 

Frozen drops

on leather gloves

White branches

moving

Nature’s beat

 

 

 

Insomnia

 

When all is

dark and silent,

an artist’s light

is still on.

 

Fitting in

 

There is something

about hiding

behind a mask

that is

terrifyingly boring.

 

Trust Issues

 

Maybe I convinced myself

that you knew my world.

Maybe I should never

do that again

 

Emotional Brick Wall

 

You were not there when

I needed you most.

But I can’t blame you.

My screams were silent

 

 

Dusk’s Explorer

 

One morning,

when all was dark,

he took his boat

and disappeared

in the horizon’s

infinity

 

 

Billion Voices

 

The stars can talk,

But only when they know

They are being stared at

    Happiness is a sensible subject because there is various way to be happy, one can achieve happiness by doing something another person does not like. That is why before being happy there will be certain emotions one can feel, just like anxiety or trust issues . There will be some days that people may feel like that because of a small problem.Just like the poem “trust issues” where the poem has my interest in the issue of one person trusting for the other, to knowing the person yet, having a feeling like the person doesn’t know you truly. At the end of the day happiness is something that will come around eventually like it may go, it will always eventually come back.
