Happiness Is Real Poem by Ray Hansell

Happiness is no illusion
When ever I’m with you
If I were lost in confusion
I know you’d know what to do

You calm my angry soul
Like no one else before you
It was my heart you stole
You are one of a very few

That I ever let this close
And this deep inside
Now that I have had a dose
My love for you I can’t hide

If you stay forever
That would be so great
I know all would get better
Before the years get too late

I wish we had met years ago
That’s what we both say
But years ago, you I didn’t know
But now is a brand new day

So let’s make the most of what we got
Let’s take it day by day
Until the sun is just a spot
Until the earth just fades away
