I Just Want To Be Happy

Frustration. Confusion. Loneliness. Hurt. Any of these sound familiar? They have all met us at some point on our journey to finding a fulfilling love. One of our resident fly poet’s CeCe has captured the rawness of that emotion today, expressing the feelings we had long since hoped to articulate. Enjoy.

Written by: CeCe Clark

All I seek is happiness,
yet time and time again all I find is pain.
I am a magnetic field of woe,
attracting all the hurt and disappointment that can be mustered.
I am a wet, seeping volcano of frustration,
yearning for the most simple of life’s pleasures-
to feel my heart smile.
I am alone,
a sole system of mass confusion and unfulfilled desire.
My words only bring slight tolerance
of each anticipated situation, each cringing memory crouching in me.
Is it a curse to be the strongest?
To endure and continue to survive?
My experience calls me to question
the inevitable ever so evasive “WHY?”

    Beautiful and sincere poem. I’ve been there and just found out yesterday that I was mistaken about one amazing gentlemen. He has my heart till the end of time and beyond.
