What's this feeling inside me?
Is this meant to be?
If happiness is a delusion,
I'm trying to achieve for that illusion.
Maybe the art of letting go,
Has shown me how to grow.
I made a huge mistake,
Letting the small things cause heartache.
If my life is a story,
I should lead its way to glory.
The closer I get to the delusion,
The more my sadness leads the way to preclusion.
Should I lose myself in the process of gaining?
Won't I just end up waning?
All these questions in my heart,
Need answers for a head-start.
Maybe answers I'm trying to find lie inside me,
Maybe staying strong will help me see.
My heart will lead the way,
And I won't stop until I find the bay.
Should I learn how to dance in the rain?
Maybe I should learn to embrace the pain.
Should I learn to flow with the air?
To be carefree, I should dare.

I created this poem book to express my feelings, hoping people will be able to relate. Hoping that I might be able to express other people's silent pain through my words. Hoping that, in some corner of the world, wherever you are, you find someone comfort that if no one understands, I do. Even if you are the only person reading this out there, just know that I'm grateful for you. Grateful that you're reading and hoping you are able to just cry it out. I never really expect much, but I do expect you to just try and be happy. You don't have to respond, you don't have to vote, you don't have to say anything. Just please stay happy. We're a month into the new year and people keep getting their heart broken. Is it all really worth it? Is what you're crying for really worth your precious tears?
