Dear Happiness

Dear Happiness

A Poem by "Mare Booskie"

Dear Happiness,

You've abandoned me lately

You've hidden your smiles from me

And left only tears

Your enemy, sadness

Has been on my heart

And won't let me out of its grasp

Please, Happiness

Come back to me before

I lose all knowledge

Of who we used to be

Come into my life and heart

Take over where only pain

Has existed for so long

Send me your dreams

Of pure joy

And show me what it feels like

To feel you once again

this is such a great piece. the idea of writing a letter to happiness is so endearing to me. you need something just ask for it. Not that it is simple by any means but you are going directly to the source. I appreciate the honest sentiment here and thank you so much for sharing. I am sure this is a piece that many many people can relate to.

Beautiful write. Love the tone of this. Honest. Simple. Quietly moving. It reads really easily and flows down the page organically. It almost reads like a prayer to me. A prayer to happiness.

I hope you find your hapiness soon :)
