Cruel myth

Folder: 
2006

maybe happiness is nothing but a myth

only found in fairytales with a prince

maybe no one in this world is really happy

and they just play pretend so no one can see

maybe everyone cries every night on a pillow wet with tears

maybe everyone is really insecure and drown in their fears

maybe everyone has something hard they are going through

maybe everyone on the inside really feels like I do

you, my friend have a gift. A gift of getting the message out using such simplistic words to make such a lovely. Please keep writing, reading this was a pleasure.

Wow, this is a very cruel myth.
But like you I feel like it is the hard truth.

I haven't been happy for years.

I believe this poem is true as well as you do.
Only there are a few things that make us happy.

But when all this death, pain, hatred, anger, and resentment...it's harder than hell to hold on.
