Where Once Happiness Lived

Happiness has died.
And Sadness has taken residence
Where once he called home.
He has destroyed everything
That Happiness has ever built.
Where once sunny days were numerous,
Now they are only scarce.
Where once friendship conquered all,
Now they are torn apart.
Where once love filled our hearts,
Now they are filled with hate.
Where once work was doing what you love,
Now it’s where the money comes.
Where once happily ever after did exist,
Now it lies in ruin.
Where once our worlds were founded by hope,
Now they are based in despair.
Happiness has died.
And Sadness has taken residence
Where once he called home.
He has destroyed everything
That Happiness has ever built.
