Remembering
I remember being happy
 My heart soaring to the clouds
 Invisible threads tugging the corners of my mouth skyward
 Laughter bubbling up my throat and tickling my lips
 You could see spirit glinting in my eyes
 I used to wear this face for all to see
 But people change, crisis occurs, and joy is harder to come by
 My heart's been muffled by the pain
 Muscles force my lips into grimaces attempting grins
 Dry sobs replace laughter
 And the only thing shining in my eyes these days are the occasional tears
 ...I miss happiness
