Finding Happiness
Looking for happiness in all the wrong places
Searching through the loneliness and desperation
To find happiness in different faces
But only to be reminded that you’re framed in two different spaces
You’ve watched the pictures and the snapshots
However this is what you thought
As you fought to find happiness on one of your own faces
You reached for the mirror and it’s ten times clearer
Through your eyes you see and you think this is me
For once in your life you see the blinding truth
But to your dismay it’s a reflection of you
As you look at your reflection
You start the recollection of what brought you to this section
And then you see like a blunt force to your head all your imperfections
Smirking at the face that you see in the mirror
You then make the ultimate joke “At least your not dead.”
