Happy for You... and Me


I am grateful that I have the opportunity to know you.

I am grateful that you gave me so many smiles.

I am grateful that you made me laugh.

You have done so so many things for me.... So its my turn to do it for you. 

I hope happiness comes more than pain.

I hope you smile in the face of joy and you laugh when humor comes.

I hope that drama leaves your life and not enters it.

There have been many lessons I have had to learn over the years...

So I understand that sometimes you have to hurt a little bit in order for the one you love the most to be happy.

That is all I want is for you to be be happy.

I want to see you smile. 

My happiness shall come in due time.... so please don't worry.

Live your life with the love that you have to give and I thank you for sharing some of that with me.

Saying goodbyes will never ever ever be easy for me, but if I know that you are shining I can deal with the pain of not having you close.

If you are happy.... then maybe that right there is my happiness.

That will be my home.
