I Don't Know, Life Maybe?

I didn't know what the word happiness meant , I knew it's textbook definition, but not how it tasted , for the past year all I have known was my burnt heart , grilled by the flames of my mind , and the taste of my salty tears .

Until he showed up , he floated like a guiding light , and I decided that I had to know him, feel him , I needed him , and I did anything to gain his heart .

He changed me , I smiled more , laughed more, started socializing more , I now knew what happiness felt like , it was him .

I never thought I would lose it so quickly.
