I won't lie to you
but I know why we don't find happiness
it isn't because we can't
but because we don't want to
what happens then
what happens when happiness is found?
we are not afraid so much of finding it
more so that there will be nothing left to look for
when it is in front of us.
Maybe we challenge ourselves
maybe we look for ways to undo our happiness
so we can look for ways to build it back up again
what comes after succeeding?
Is happiness self-contained?
Does it burn to fuel a reason to keep waking up?
We choose not to figure that out
because who wants to take the chance
of leaving yourself nothing to look for?
nothing to look forward to...
Who are those people who have found it?
They are the exception to the rule
