I think I just met the happiest person in the world! And it’s draining, it makes me think of all the things I never had and never will. Like a loving mother, sibling bonding or good education. I am here, working another retail job, and then comes this new manager, changing everything again, as if this didn’t happen every 6 months. I feel like she has come to stay and will make my life unbearable w...
I look over my shoulder at her.
“Why do you say that?” I ask, dropping my notebook and pencil to give her my full attention.
“All you’ve been doing is smiling and laughing! At least since I’ve known you,” Harmony explains, attempting to bury her smile in her own shoulder.
_Yeah, because I’ve known _you_. _I attempt to bite back, but the words don’t make it out alive.
“What’s up, Pax?” Harmony...
“I think I just met the happiest person in the world!”
She wrote this declaration quietly in her journal, but even now her heart fluttered and sank in her chest at the thought of him.
“How could anyone be so perfectly happy,” she scratched, “when you told me that everyone has got a bad side? I don’t understand. Help me understand?”

I think I just met the happiest person in the world
And she’s driving me crazy.
I’m a hardcore, brooding poet
Not someone who smiles at babies
She’s fun and lovely
I’m messed up and lonely
She likes Justin Bieber
I’m hung up on NF
She likes springtime
I like fall
She loves sunshine
I love raindrops
She’s a sweetheart
I’m an addict
But she’s my best friend
And she’s all that I have...
“I think I just met the happiest person in the world!”
This inspired me to write a poem which does not begin with the prompt. It follows:
*****
Golden earrings, silver spoon,
Diamond teeth, and eyes? Full moon.
That same day I’m in my room
when jealous feelings self-consume.
Her car’s a new blue beetle,
red raindrops tap the ground.
Acrylics click before I see,
I hear when she’s around.
She’s...
I think I just met the happiest person in the world. Even though I can see she is truly terrified. Even though I can see her hesitation in the things she says, actions she does, and the things she hears. She’s happy though. That’s what they all say, when deep down they are suffering from what the future may hold. She’s so happy because the future may grow in unbelievable ways and grant her many po...
"I think I just met the happiest person in the world!" I almost yell to my friend from across the cafe I just ran into, late for our plans yet again.
"I- okay? Tell me about them." She replies as I walk up to her and sit across from her at the round, wooden cafe table. This cafe has been our meeting spot for a while with its green walls and soft light. We find it to be a relaxing place to g...
I believe that it is important to have conversations with friends or anyone in a relationship where the person feels valued. Taking the time to truly listen to what they have to say is a courteous gesture that demonstrates your interest and commitment to the friendship or relationship.
