Happiness: state of well-being characterized by emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.
I have not yet found this wonderful "toy".
I feel it for a bit, then it's gone.
For the battle hasn't been won.

I get beaten down by hardship, everyday.
It's not playtime for me, it's not time to play.
It's time for me to fight, everyday, every minute, every hour.
I have to go through everything so sour.

I try to fight it off, trying to find this thing.
But I just get bashed everyday by society, being wrung.
This isn't the way life should be, sweet thing.

I wish I had the joy to be found.
I wish I could sleep safe and sound.
I wish I could wake up everyday, not worrying a thing.
. . And that I could enjoy everything life could bring.

When will I reach the full state of happiness?
