The Word that Escaped Me

There's a funny word

A word I can't quite describe

A word that is so overwhelmingly sad

And yet equally content

A word that can mean everything in the world

And next to nothing at all

It's one of those words that we use far too often

One of those words you can use to describe trivial things

And yet a word we don't use enough

One of those words you use when you can't seem to find

An emotion so strong and so bright

Yet equally weak and dull

A word so complicated and long

Yet ridiculously short

Oh what's the word?

This strange and confusing emotion that escapes me

This incredible feeling

One of those feeling that you know exactly what it is when you feel it

Something like cheerful

Joyful

Thrilled

Upbeat

Blessed

Gleeful

Ecstatic

Ah, yes!

I believe I've found it!

I've found it at last!

This complicated, perplexing, irritating, simply perfect emotion

I've found the name for it

Its name is 

Happy
