What is My Key?

Folder: 
My poems

Happiness is something I've witnessed
But never actually felt
The happiness I see in people's eyes
Is a feeling I can't unlock
For some reason to me
Happiness is a mystery that I just cannot solve
I see happiness everywhere I go
But for me that emotion
Is under lock and key
Only my key hasn't been found
Most people like me search and search and search
For their key their whole lives
But honestly I do not even look
I just wander through the shadows of loneliness
Somehow knowing my key will come to me
I don't know when, where, or how
Or even what it'll be
But sometimes I wonder if it's even worht waiting for
Sometimes at my lowest points I consider saying goodbye
Goodbye to this evil world that has conquered my life
But when I reach out to Death's hand
I just cannot bring myself to grasp it
I do not know why I never take the risk
I Just can't take take Death by the hand
Not yet at least
But maybe it is time for me to take the jump
And grab Death by the hand
Sometimes I wonder if Death is my key
So maybe its time for me to find out
Maybe it's time for Death to be my savior
And help me find my key to happiness
