true happiness

Happiness,
an inside job,
yeah sure you can find some outside,
but it wont last until you find the inside happiness;
so many are lost,
so many in denial,
so many just don't know how.
Happiness,
true happiness comes when you figure it out inside,
fix what is wrong inside, when that happens, the outside will be just right.
We all deserve happiness,
some are so lost they feel like thats it,
but its never too late, to get happiness, true happiness.

Forward, March On

looking back,
looking at some old writings,
can't believe my eyes,
I was so young,
I was so lost, a lost soul,
looking back and looking here and now,
oh, how far I have come,
I was a mess,
I was runner,
running away, from everything and everyone,
couldn't ask for help,
wouldn't ask for help,
there were times I didn't think I was going to make it, but I did.
Something kept me going,
kept giving me the strength, the courage to keep pushing,
I stayed the course,
it was a bumpy ride, I have to say,
and I am sure the ride isn't through,
in fact I know it isn't,
I still have a lot to do,
a lot to share,
to inspire,
to live and love.
Looking back,
just looking,
not staying back there,
I've let it go,
I remember, always will,
but have let it go,
wasn't easy, still have moments,
but thats all they are, moments.
Looking back,
boy was I stubborn,
I still am,
but I've loosened the reins a bit.
Looking back,
looking forward,
moving forward.
