Am I Happy?

                                      Am I Happy?

It seems as though I have taken a step away from happiness.

And I miss the time when I for a second thought I knew what  happiness is.

I am now not only a step far from happiness,

But also the meaning of happiness seems to fade away from my mind...

I strived to walk toward a streak of light before me

But I find myself more and more alone in darkness.

Now, I’m here…

Looking for the streak of light that is missing in my life…
