Today

Today

It's a beautiful day, so why can't i smile?

The birds are out, the sky is blue,

The sun is shining, and the grass so green.

But i still can't be happy.

There are smiles beside me,

And laughs in the air.

But i can't find the humor,

No reason to feel joy.

Why must i suffer?

I know it's my doing,

That happiness comes from within,

But yet it seems misplaced.

It runs when i search,

It fights when it's cornered.

Why can't i find it?

Why can't it accept me?

I guess I'll just be alone.

Not in person, but in my mind.

Today, the day i accept suffering...
