Happiness? ? ? Poem by Rita Thornhill

A story unfolds before me & I'm happy!

But deep inside a bit of sadness lurks.
And I need to find out why! ?
Why this keeps haunting my life,
My memories?

It's like cancer spreading from the source
into all other parts of my body.

But this...this is different,
it affects all aspects of my life at once...
It starts with an event,
it becomes the night,
then spreads...
Corrupting everything good that comes in it's path.

This cancer does not kill you,
it slowly gnaws away
bits & pieces of your soul!

This event then becomes your greatest fear in life!
One question keeps arising: 'WHY ME? '

I know I'm not the only one,
but we all ask that question at some point in our life!
Other than this fear that is hiding...

I AM TRULY HAPPY
I have found what I was looking for!
AND once again I can say

I AM TRULY HAPPY!
Because the love I was looking for is here!
I have found it within myself! ! !
