[BLOG] Pursuit of Happiness (free verse)
My heart hurts a bit A tiny blow Minor chip It hurts Even though I know it’s the truth
I have to learn to let go Live Be me But it’s not a world I’m ready for Even if it must be done
My Shamballa has fallen My kingdom is gone Nomadic I have become In search of a new home Fallen, but never lost Simply because I’m always strong
Habits die hard In place it is me How I feel The way I become I don’t want it to die
I don’t want it to be over Keep it forever But reality clashes Destroying what could be Making should be in my future
I’m not prepared for this Defiantly not ready I don’t want this to be true Always the Universe believes it’s for the best
I figure I can’t fight anymore For sure the battle isn’t done More will come as I lay this gun Placed on my heart Playing an imaginary Russian Roulette game.
Life shines Game over to what was once my prize Tucked away with past memories Just maybe I may live again Right now, I’ll open my eyes
Just that something greater may be there As it may be I’m on the Pursuit of Happiness
