banks of consciousness

happiness will not leave me
i feel abandoned from grief
and the lies of ten thousand years
that have filled my eyes and ears

happiness will not leave me
i cannot believe in belief
that is built upon fabrications
choking joy with manipulations

happiness will not leave me
as i giggle with a fools grin
at the madness evolving slowly
against the batons of the holy

happiness will not leave me
for it has become my shadow
that is not cast in darkness
but built upon the everlastings

i am free from the bonds of depression
and merely wave my hand away at aggression
that seduces the minds strengthen by fears
while I laugh from my belly full of beers

happiness will not leave me
with an empty look of confusion
as my spirit glows beyond confinement
ripping the lids off of defilement

no, happiness is my completeness
joy - the maidservant of my life
passion - the fuel that consumes me
bliss - the blanket the covers me

do i have any other reason to be?

Declaration of Independence!.... Hell yes.

Spread the Gospel, Brother Cecil.

happiness will not leave me
for it has become my shadow

unrelated ramble
This voice so filled with self pity and anger at all the things I have lost a long the way, I been trying to remember how happy I am. I have great hopes for the gypsy, trying to build a new personality.

This poem reminds me of how negative i've become.
Of course my response is love/hate.

Mostly love though.
thanks for this Cec.
