There Is No Myth To Happiness by Nobody: 9:02pm On Sep 07, 2017
A message for all
Story for the chosen
In ode I sing
The songs of my heart
Of battles lost
Of victories claimed

Some become your family
Because they are adding to your success
And your family becomes a stranger
Because they don't care about your existence

Life they said it’s in cycle
You revolve around the world you create
Hate beget hate
Love beget love
And the little help we render to others
Bears the stepping stone to our peak

Maybe there is no myth
Just the ones we create
Someone says I lost
Because I couldn't do all that it takes
to have what I wanted
But does what I wanted amounts to what I needed
Because the theory of all it takes
Could mean you loosing it all
If the chase is just for the thrill
And not for the price to keep

Some are boastful
Being on a fast lane
Hurriedly running a race
With no destination or stop
Marking their own script
With the scheme of others
And boastful of being in a class
A mirage only created by the illusions of other

Fake people have an image to maintain
But why live life in fear of being caught in your own skin
That you parade yourself in the apparel of others
That might not be better than you
Why not be yourself when you can be happier
In your own skin


You have dedicated part of your life
Your time
Your energy
Your emotions
Your money
To please others
But with all this, you wonder why you still fail
Fail to impress, failed to be loved
There is no victory in losing yourself
So that others can have their happiness
Loving yourself is the dragon ball that wins the heart of orders
Don't get me wrong
Loving yourself improves your minds scenery
And create an avenue
Where others can be loved

There is no Myth to happiness
You create it.
