Happiness is hard to find.
It's like a hidden treasure that everyone wants.
I just wanted to find peace but that didn't happen.
Instead, I got a cloud of darkness.
It followed me like a plague.
I was constantly in the dark just begging to find the light.
Sometimes it felt like I was paralyzed, drowning in a pool of my thoughts.
My lungs felt like they were in the middle of a scorching fire.
My knees felt weak and my stomach felt empty.
God, this must be what death feels like.
I hope this is just a horrible nightmare and that I would wake up soon.
Then it happened.
I could move.
I swam to the top and inhaled a breath of fresh air.
Relief washed over me.
Peace.
I finally found it.
It was like a good gulp of fresh air.
Time stood still but I was still moving.
I looked around and admired the beauty of my mind.
I finally saw the light.
I found my happiness.
I could finally rest.
