Happiness
Happiness is not a man I’ve met
Smiling until the sun has set
Happiness may be a woman I’ve known
Living to love her power’s throne
Happiness sought to ruin my day
Whittling my constructed depression away
In retrospect Happiness was always there
With nostalgic words and a world that was fair
Happiness cannot help but postpone
Unless his presence at that time is known
Who calls out for yesterday, Happiness’ hour
When the women were sweet and the milk, never sour
Him unaware of past terrors still yearns
For Happiness’s past of mellow returns
Happiness is always the past’s better day
Until Happiness come to chase “Happiness” away
