No tears fall from these eyes
The wells are dry for the storm has passed
A feeling of grace and peace stir inside me
This feeling I have not felt for so long
I try to keep it in, but it bursts out so fast I can't control it
My mind is as clear as crystal
No thoughts of sadness or anger surround me
But surrounded by faith, hope, and love
This feeling I have been searching for
Happiness is this feeling
What everyone yearns for
What everyone wants to find
But what most don’t know
Is that there is only one way
Its not when you are so dizzy and nauseated that your insides want to implode
Its not when you give everything you are and lose something in the process
Its not when you fall for him and feel there is nothing else in the world
It’s when you choose to be content with who you are
What you do
How you feel
It’s when you find the strength to be yourself
Not hiding behind a glass wall where you and only you can see your true reflection
Don’t fear what others think of you
They will be drowned in their ignorance
When you are done with all this
You will find it
What I’ve found
Happiness
What everyone yearns for
What everyone wants to find

Today a brighter day
No tears fall from these eyes
The wells are dry for the storm has passed
A feeling of grace and peace stir inside me
This feeling I have not felt for so long
I try to keep it in, but it bursts out so fast I can't control it
My mind is as clear as crystal
No thoughts of sadness or anger surround me
But surrounded by faith, hope, and love
This feeling I have been searching for
Happiness is this feeling
What everyone yearns for
What everyone wants to find
But what most don’t know
Is that there is only one way
Its not when you are so dizzy and nauseated that your insides want to implode
Its not when you give everything you are and lose something in the process
Its not when you fall for him and feel there is nothing else in the world
It’s when you choose to be content with who you are
What you do
How you feel
It’s when you find the strength to be yourself
Not hiding behind a glass wall where you and only you can see your true reflection
Don’t fear what others think of you
They will be drowned in their ignorance
When you are done with all this
You will find it
What I’ve found
Happiness
What everyone yearns for
What everyone wants to find

Good advice in todays world where we are pounded on all sides by "Traders" of one sort or another to buy their wares.

The pitch is always the same. Suggestion..... you are lacking in some respect?
Answer...what you need is our product!

We have sold our souls to the Devil in order to be entertained.

There is an escape so well described in your poem
