Life and Happiness
I can't live without happiness;
However, I can survive.
But, is a life without living, and only surviving, a life worth keeping alive?
Society wants money, and power, and demand for respect.
I want a smile, the world's warmth and the glow love emits and never regrets.
I want? No - I need.
For living can't be perceived, without happiness and in that, there is depth.
A heart yearns for joy, because existing is not living in the absence of happiness.
It's not selfish for you and I to crave a drop, although I'd like to drown.
In happiness, life is full of hope, and in hope , serenity is found.
In happiness, greys are less vivid , but the world is painted in hue.
In happiness, the world is living art, an exhibition made to be experienced by two.
Be brazen, be bold - willingly want what I need.
A life full of happiness, that exceeds existence, a life made to breathe.
Happiness.
