Found
I felt like it was happiness that swelled and swirled in my soul
But as I dug deeper there was an impediment much worse, myself
That's when the battle began
The battle I struggled to avoid for so long
The monsters that were caged were let loose and sent to attack
I fought every day and night
I'm not grumbling, I'm simply telling my story
Instead of finding happiness I found myself
Dense, but I was determined
Dazed, yet I was dedicated
Hurt, however I continued
I continued to dig, each time revealing more of me
The pieces continued to fit together
An epiphany educated me
Why did I fight so hard to search for happiness
When the swell, swirl, and consumption of my soul set me free
I'm not reveling, I'm simply telling my story
I realize now that finding myself was happiness searching for me
