Happiness is


Sometimes I feel sad, some days I just want to cry,

But the thing that keeps me going is eating French fries. 

I stress over college, homework and money,

But the thought of success makes sadness taste like honey. 

When I am down and begin to frown, 

I think of the smiles of happy clowns. 

Some days I read a book, sometimes I drink tea.

Happiness is simplicity.
