Everyone walks around,
with a smile on their face.
A smile born from happiness,
that no sadness can replace.
I cannot feel happiness,
because there is no on to share it with me.
Without someone that wants to share your happiness,
the people around you can only be deceived.
It is possible to appear happy,
when you really feel endless sadness.
You can act perfectly normal,
while the loneliness drives you to madness.
To be truly happy,
you need one of two things.
And without one or the other,
your heart will not sing.
The first thing is so simple,
yet it’s so hard to obtain.
It is having a person that wants to share your happiness,
even during times of rain.
The second thing is simple as well,
but it’s still hard to find.
It’s believing you will soon have that person,
that will leave the sadness behind.
I have no one in my life,
and do not believe anyone will soon make that change.
So the happiness you see is a mere illusion,
hiding the loneliness and sadness I try to cage.
