Dear Happiness

Dear Happiness,

I want to go to a concert one day.

One not too crowded

but just right.

One where the aroma of hot energetic bodies bouncing off beat fill the air

but, you still feel the power of the music.

I would be one of those hot energetic bodies bouncing off beat.

Smiling so hard , my cheeks would hurt the next day.

In that moment, nothing else would matter.

The constant weight of responsibility ringing through the ears of the stereo,

drowned out by the screams erupting from my mouth.

I let go of what's behind me,

what's in front of me,

What's beside me.

I'm in the middle of the crowd.

This center is comfortable.

This time not drawing much attention.

But comfortable doesn't disregard the fact that the concert will be over.

The song will eventually end.

The stage will eventually clear.

And the hot energetic bodies can't stay.

Encore I yell at the end of every set.

Hard to not fall into the heat of the moment.

It's the moments like this you can't get back.

If only that concert could last forever ...

In that moment I'll feel infinite

Love, Syniah (but you can call me Joy) <3
