Happiness in a butterfly

Blogoratti April 14, 2009

Quote of the day:
It is a sad thing to look at happiness only through another's eyes -Marquerite Blessington

Are you happy...
or do you look at happiness only through another's eyes?..

Are you confident...
about yourself...your dreams, your goals.

are you...? 

are you happy with life...
would you rather you were someone else...
somewhere else...

do you smile outside...
and cry inside..
 
do you break down and cry in solitude....
do you?

next time leave the door open...
just for happiness to sneak in...like a butterfly.

never chase away that which makes you happy...
never chase away the butterfly.


Current listen:  Coldplay- Viva La Vida

    how true, but sometimes one only recognizes butterfly after they are gone

    yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.....oh snap! that was rhetorical questions?

    never chase away that which makes you happy.....thats a good one, but then happiness is relative.

    Like I said I think you should do spoken word, dawg mehn, another good one.
    I find it hard to ready poetry and you should see how I rush (well maybe not fast enough seeing as I am 15..hehehe) to come read yours because your style is simple yet powerful. Love it..xo
