Finding something more

I set out to find something more,
But I realized you can't do that when your heart is tore.
It took many days and nights,
To accomplish my empty heart great fight.
I wondered if I could ever truly be happy and get my way.
Time passed, but my heart its torn pieces stayed.
I dwelled in sadness, my organs weaped.
As my broken life seemed to just seep.
When I was in the dark and all alone I'd tear myself down...
Nothing would ever be on my face but a frown.
Then I awoke to a different side,
A part of me that was trying to hide.
I can't always have what I want cause life is going to be unfair.
I'll deal with it, because dwelling makes my life unable to bear.
Someone special asked me "why be so sad?
Why would you not want to spend your life happy instead of feeling so bad?"
That question sunk deep in my mind,
Right then and there my heart came out of a bind.
Many people are important in your life
The amazing ones will help you through pain and strife.
I learned you will suffer if you let the bad things fill your chest,
That knocks out everything good that makes life the absolute best.
I found the best cure for when I'm down, it surely works for me...
It's something so small, it's nearly a laugh, you see?
A good laugh can always make you happy no matter what.
So I'm doing myself a wonderful favor, and not giving up. :)
