I was happy today,

I think.

But then something happened,

Something always does.

And the happiness melted away,

Like snow admits the afternoon sun.

We were happy together,

Most of the time.

We had days we wish would last a lifetime.

Time didn’t count its path when we were together,

Until it did.

Now we are alone together,

Missing what once was ours.

I am happy sometimes,

But it is seeming less and less.

What is it that pulls at me,

Begs me to find it,

And be happy forever.

I can feel it,

I can almost see on the days we were together,

But now it seems even more distant than before.

Was I ever even close,

And will it ever come again.

Have I ever even walked

The thin line between happiness and joy.
