There are faults in this Earth’s line.
A fiery core
A burning sun
A lifeless moon,
Deadening creatures,
Demented dark,
And yet…
There are birds flying by

Life all around us,
And beauty in the air.

The sun full of light,

The sky without a care.
The moon--nor the sun,
Would be complete without the other.
There are faults in this earth’s line,
But what would they be without eachother?


The author's comments:

On my journey to discovering what true happiness is, I found that Americans have an especially difficult time being joyful. Why? Because, we overuse happiness and identify it as the only acceptable emotion to have. However, in life, it is best to accept both the bad and the good times, and realize they both have their part in our lives. After all, what would happiness be without sadness? The true emotion would be far less felt. If happiness was somthing everyone felt everyday, it would be a far less genuine experience.
