Happy?A Poem by Joey Martinez
Sadness is always authentic, you can never portray a false frown
Happiness is full of lies and it’s seen all around It’s hard to distinguish the real from the fake Sadness leaves a trace, you feel the tension between the soul and the body Sadness is a full time job while happiness is a hobby However, true happiness leaves a mark like no other It smothers It hovers It’s felt no matter the distance But it can all be taken away in an instance Life has us in this rat race for happiness and most get left behind Have you ever met someone who truly made it across the finish line? Have you ever experienced a soul who shined a light during the suns rest? It’s possible indeed but I’ve been around the greeds of the clouds for far too long Life keeps playing the same ol song and I grow tired of the repetitive noise Its time to flip the record Its time to weather the storm A cold heart yearns to feel warm © 2018 Joey Martinez |
