Happy

Today i looked up at the sky
It was blue !
I was staring  at it
I couldn't believe that the sky is blue 
Because I have always seen the sky dark
With grey clouds above my head 
But today it was clear 
With no clouds , only birds 
They were flying , singing 
They seemed happy 
Just like me !

I'm isolated a thousand miles away from my comfort zone 
I'm doing the things I never thought I can get them done 
I'm trying new things ,and the first new thing i've done is moving on 
I left , i'm gone 
I decided to leave it all behind 
Leave the things and people I love 
It hurts first , but then i realized it's the best thing to do if I want to heal 
I forgot every moment of sadness 
I forgot all the problems 
My head and my heart are now empty 
And now i'm happy

I'm happy 
It's been a long time I haven't said this word 
I'm happy
Now I'm ready to face the world 
Be happy 
Enjoy the moment before you're dead
Be happy
Don't cry , smile instead

A most heart felt piece of happiness, a subject I rarely read or write on myself, a few grammatical errors, but the point comes across loud and clear, well done, good read.

[Black Jess]

Thank you , i know it's a subject that I rarely write too , but this time I felt it , so I wrote , because I write what I feel ^^

Happy poems are really good, and there are so few. I really like this poem, and there is an important message to be learned here. Sometimes the only way to let go is to move away from the things holding you. I'm really happy for you and I really hope your happiness lasts, you deserve to be happy

[Black Jess]

Happiness certainly is an antidote for depression, isn't it?

This poem was very uplifting and deviates from the typical tales of sorrow. Yes, you recognize your own despair, but you were able to find joy through your tribulations. Well done, indeed!

[Black Jess]

I lived a moment of happiness and I just couldn't let it go without saving it , not only in my memory and in my heart , but also in my paper . Hope you will find happiness too like I did . ^^
