Happiness

• Artist: Tasariel
• Description: This is about substance abuse.
  Obviously the speaker is upset that someone they love (family member) is into this stuff.
  A lot of emotion went into this.
  I think it speaks for itself.

How does that make you happy?
I thought you loved me.
You always said you did.
But you love that more, don’t you?
You love what it can give you
That I cannot.
I tried so hard,
I loved you with every beat of my tiny heart.
But it never made any difference, did it?
I never really made a pulse on the surface
Of what you call emotions.
You can’t claim to love me,
When you keep doing this to me,
To yourself.
I asked you once,
Do I make you happy, do I make you proud?
You answered that I did,
But I don’t believe you.
If I truly made you happy,
If I truly made you proud,
You wouldn’t need this addiction to make you happy.
Is this really what you want?
To be alone with your only true happiness?
The happiness I can’t give you,
The happiness without effort,
Without love.

Wow. That Is Dead Good. Love the emotion and all the questions

This is really good -- I like how you really showed how you felt in it, and explained it with detail all of your emotions, instead of simply saying "Why you have to get into this stuff?" like a lot of people would. You show how hurt you are by it.
