The Happiness of Love
Happiness enveloping me whole
With the love that surrounds me,
Happiness is all I see
While I look at the abundance of love
That is cascading down me
Happiness is slowly slipping out of my grasp
At the sight of a thousand words,
The love slowly diminishing
While I look at the person that
Provided this love for me
This love and happiness has taught me so much---
How to be myself around others---
How to be understanding---
And most importantly---
How to love myself
How to love myself
Is one of the most important things of all
How to be understanding,
And how to act around others
Is what love and happiness taught me.
But that is not the only thing
The heartbreak,
The desperation,
That comes with love and happiness have also
Taught me how to care for others through the storm
