My happiness is a lot like sunglasses.

The sun is like my friends and family.

I always wear my sunglasses around them. To stop them from seeing the sadness in my eyes.

But when the sun goes away, I turn on the light and take off my sunglasses.

You are my light, I don't need to wear my sunglasses around you.

I don't need to pretend to be happy around you.

But when you're not around, the darkness gets to me.

It gets into my head, making me think of the things I don't want to think about.

It makes me think that you and the sun will never come back.

But then, I turn on the light.

When I was a kid, I would always sleep with the light on.

I was always scared of the monsters under my bed.

You keep me away from the monsters under my bed, the monsters in my head.

But now, I can't help but wear my sunglasses around you.
