Shards of Happiness

Happiness is not given to you in a neat little package

Happiness is hidden among miles of wreckage

It's in the shattered glass of hopes and dreams

yet we can't find it

So it seems

Happiness is hidden among the shards of fear and anger

These mask and guard us from what we call danger.

Yet that is happiness 

What we are blocked from seeing

Happiness is only found in our being

It may seem lost to many of us

But we are blinded by the reflections of trust

The reflections that bounce off of fear

The reflections that force us here

In a state of sadness

That should be that of gladness 

Will we ever shut our eyes and follow our senses? 

Will we ever throw away the fake lenses?

It may be so

One day we will know

How happiness feels

and what it conceals
