Happiness

From Pain

By Hannah WolfePublished 7 years ago 1 min read

As long as I've known

The tears in my eyes

The sorrow in my heart

Is constant in every breath I take.

My sight has seen horrors

My heart has been drained

My fingers felt people slip away.

But through it all

I found anew

The hurt became my strength

The pain ebbed away

I let people in

To see the past pain

They knew and they stayed

Which is more than I can say

The ones that have betrayed

Made me feel so astray

But to this day

Darkness I slay

I deserve happiness

We all do in a way.

I only write what I feel because it's my truth.
