Finding Happy

A Poem

Happy

I once didn’t know how to be happy

I thought to have a good day

was just to be okay

Sad was on good

and depression, well now,

that’s a whole nother mood.

People praying for wealth

I couldn’t find the strength to even pray for self

Begging and pleading to others but the main one i needed to listen was me.

who gives a crap that you grew up without a father, or a mother, you see

Your life is about you and what do they have to do with you

Rolling your eyes acting all tough

I bet the hardest thing you’ll ever learn how to do

is toughen up

Take life like a WOman

The only one who is really out to get me, is ME

My own devil in disguise, praying to a god that turns water into wine.

Choked up on religion now not eating swine,

meditating daily to erase the

Scars my past left behind.

Go right, moving out my own way,

No longer saying im religious these days,

had to give up on him and focus on me

That’s when i learned that the best part of me was a part in me.

Just like satan had fallen and landed in my lap

I had to dust her off

found a speck of beauty that god had left.

Its amazing once you learn there is no god in the sky, but the one that rest in the Eye

Inside

Afraid to sit in the dark because the soul doesn’t want to see what’s inside

It’s all a part of its own Mental health.

See people think I’m crazy, but the worlds insane

You see how HIs story keeps repeating herself itself.

I don’t know what life is about, but there is this one thing I’m curious about

Happy
