_Happiness…_

__

_Are you_

_Really out there?_

__

_Will I_

_Ever find you?_

There’s a

Thousand-pound weight

On my chest,

Holding me back

From doing my best.

It pulls my hand back

When I’m about to grab yours,

Happiness,

I need your hands,

Your warmth.

__

_Happiness?_

__

_Call out to me,_

_Please…_

Though even if you did,

I wouldn’t hear you,

For it covers my ears too.

_Happiness?_

__

_If I scream into the dark,_

_Will you find me?_

__

_Will you hear _

_My desperate cries?_

You probably won’t,

For its hands cover my mouth…

_How does it have so many?_

It won’t let me breath,

It’s covering my nose too.

_Happiness?_

__

_Make it go away,_

_Please…_

__

_If you’re going to find me,_

_Make it quick._

__

__

_It has almost _

_Destroyed me._

__

_I need you,_

_To see your light…_

But even if you find me,

I might not see you,

It’s covering my eyes too…

_I can’t see._

_I can’t see you…_

__

_I can’t hear you…_

__

_I can’t feel you…_

__

_Happiness?_

__

_Are you _

_Really out there?_

__

_Will I _

_Ever find you?_

__

_Probably not…_
