The sky was blue again
And I could feel the warmth of the sun
Against my thawing fleshThe numbness fled my body
And a foreign feeling
Replaced itMy smiles were no longer forced
Laughter not faked
Happiness burned inside of meBut then
The switch flipped
And all that hope was ripped out
Sucked out of every orifice of my being
And I was left feeling numb againThe sun still lit up the sky
But the warmth did not reach meThe sky was still blue
But the color did not soothe meEverything around me
Was still the same
But I looked at it differentlyI know that happiness exists
I had felt it once in a fleeting moment
But I wasn't childish enough to think
That it would exist for me
