What Is Happiness

by Little Dot   Nov 24, 2005


What is happiness
I don't see it anymore
It's been gone for such a long time
It went straight out the door
Along with you

Now when I turn around
You aren't there
Holding my hand
Telling me that you love me

What is happiness
It's been lost for so long
It's been buried deep underground

My happiness is gone
So very far away
I used to know happiness
That has all changed
Now all I know is sadness
And depression

My happiness has flown away
It's gone to the ends of the earth
Now I never have one good day

I wish I could remember what happiness was

    I dont know if it was intentional but i like the way the erratic structure promotes the idea of confusion and desparation.

    I feel like that sometimes. Good poem, you should check out some of mine. We seem to write about the same things.

    This is a great poem, because nobody really knows what happiness is and when it's gone you wish you had it back.
