A Yearning For Happiness

Call it elated
Call it euphoric
Happiness is the goal
And, I'm all for it

Everyone wants to be happy
Everyone wants a good life
To achieve their dreams
And, ultimately thrive

It's good when people are happy
Always with a smile
Laughing constantly
And, positivity for miles

Wouldn't it be cool
If that was you?
You wish that it was
Though, you know it's not true

Maybe deep down 
Happy is who you are
As it stands now
That person seems quite far

You want to be that person
You want to feel that way
Just like when you were young
Content and care free

Happiness seems easily obtain
To those without
A chemically imbalanced brain
For us, it's an obstacle that stands in the way

You wish you could go back
To who you use to be
To reattain the
Joyful feeling you felt everyday

We're not incapable of being happy
I know, I certainly laugh & smile
Happiness is just natural for some
Others, it takes awhile 

Happiness is a journey
Not a destination
It's a goal for everyone
That we all hope to bring to fruitation
