How to Measure Happiness

2/1/2022

0 Comments

 
How do you measure happiness?
With a ruler or a scale to weigh it?
Is there a price or level of success?
Or your amount of online influence?

Is it what you have? Or what you do?
Or is it how your public image looks?
Are you keeping up? Do you need more?
Do your parents even like you anymore?

Why aren't you happy like everyone else?
Because if that's what happiness looks like
And if that's what they're trying to sell, then
I don't want a happiness that's superficial

Happiness doesn't need to be liked to be valid
You could finally discover your life's purpose
And still get less likes than someone else's
Picture of their dinner and a stupid caption

Social media cannot capture how good you are
So don't let the likes (or lack thereof) distort how
You perceive yourself or your self worth because
The truth is that happiness has also been distorted

To End on a Happy Note

Saying this might not help
But by saying something
Hopefully what was said
Will resonate with someone

It might not be remembered
Exactly what I wrote or said
Or what you heard or read
But what did you honestly think

When you scrolled past me?
My interpretation of reality
Helps me make the best of things
Did you see or feel anything?

A New Light in the Sky

I thought I knew
All the stars in
The night sky

Like the stickers
On my ceiling that
Glowed in the dark

Or like the map
In the sky when I
Was terribly lost


Like abstract ideas
That I have to 
Connect the dots

I thought I knew
All of the stars but
Now there's a new

Light in my skies
Looking out for me
And I wonder why
