Happiness

A poem about searching for fulfillment, making changes and looking back on old mistakes.

Happiness breaks on the surface of now,
but quietly slips back into before,
and now you're uncovered,
and covered now,
and shimmering.
I must get wet to reach you,
but I may break apart before you,
you're rising,
and falling.
I haven't long for this,
I must touch you,
I must enter you,
You must be all around me,
and I must be forever in you.
