World of Happiness

by simplysoso   May 7, 2006


My alarm goes off, telling me a new day has come
I close my eyes, wondering why I'm still alive
Though I know that this day I too will survive
So I will strive for the best, and fight to the dawn.

I begin my daily routine without much thought
I put on my face, to prove you all wrong
I put on the smile, and tell you I'm fine
I fake a laugh, when all I want to do is cry.

I look at myself in the mirror
I hate what I see, hate the person staring back at me
Maybe if I was skinnier, maybe if I was prettier
Maybe if I didn't have these scars, you would love me all the more

My eyes of emptiness stare back at me
They burn a whole of hatred and guilt deep within me
The overwhelming feelings are too much to handle
The end must come near, maybe tonight I fear

Finally the day has come to an end
Time to sleep and pray for no tomorrow
Hope that the pain will disappear
And I will float into a world of happiness
