The Definition Of Happiness

Sometimes it feels like the worlds against me
and i have my hands tied behind my back
my life's so off track
i feel like letting myself fall long and hard
i wish everything was easier in life
i want my happily ever after
why is that so hard to acquire?
it's almost as though i have to walk through fire
to ease my burning desire
for the happiness in life that i seek
something that feels so unreal,
but everyone around me is dying to feel
is it something physical or just an emotion
unable to obtain like water in an ocean??
something everyone wants in there possession,
to have it seems to have become an obsession
with no progression
to wards what one really wants.
Why can't i find the happiness i seek?
I want to know why i don't have it
I want to know if i ever truly will
I want to know how to give it
i want to know how to live it
Where is this happiness
that i so longingly wish to hold within me
The happiness that is so hard to see
something that is so far away from me
or maybe it's right in front of my face
something i have simply and mistakenly misplaced
and will find again one day
when i truly am meant to be
what one would call
the definition of happy
