Poems on Happiness - Blackout Poetry Notes

Really Be Alive

You owe it to yourself
to really be alive.

Extend compassion
and take care of yourself.
Find a way to smile.

Peaceful.
Just one word.
It was exactly how I felt.

For a few moments
she was left alone, these moments
of solitude,
free from eyes upon her,
felt good.

Live on kindness
and reflect
it back.

To be free and easy
is beautiful,
I have a supreme belief
in love
and in life.

Look around, this day
seemed filled
with an invisible energy.

Isn't it odd?
How we put off living
til one way
or another we discover
a happy life.

The simplest of things - 
laughter, gratitude and silence
make me happy.

I am the picture of calm.
My new self.
A new life.
