the Waning happiness

Happiness under my socks

Is struggling to find ways to escape.

I pull it up- my loose socks, I mean:

And my happiness dwindles down at each step.

What good comes of lamenting?

The unheard happiness echoes loud beneath my soles,

The windy tales to start over again

Finds no way to seep in through the holes.

My happiness keeps decaying under my socks-

In lame health and spirit;

What fertilizers should I use

To manually regrow the "happiness" weeds?

Happiness has heard much of itself

And wants to relive the way it has always been;

But the monotony stays indifferent to the

Reflections of sunrise as the sunrays hit the screen.
