Happiness

Without warning it dies on days like this
I wonder if it could get worse,
But deep inside I know that it could destroy me all together
I tell myself I can handle this
No need to worry anyone else with these thoughts
He, my lover and best friend, will catch me if I fall
But not even he can hold on to the emotions that slowly unravel themselves
I hate how consuming it all feels, until the point that breath can no longer escape smoothly
Sometimes this painted on smile gets me through
At the end of the day I just want to explode into tears and scream until my voice fades
Without warning, Happiness, dies on days like this
