Hide & Seek.

Finding my happiness again.

Funny how it comes to you at the most random times- like a familiar friend knockin' on the door & jokingly yelling to let her in already. It happens laying in bed next to a treasured friend, giggling the night away to Regina & a plethora of fanciful thoughts. It finds you mid robot during an impromptu dance party with the guys upstairs, and follows you as you walk down the street & get intoxicated by the smell of fresh jasmine. It wakes up with you every morning, at the sweet thought of having yet another whole day to do whatever you like with. It lays zip locked behind a bag of assorted dark chocolates, & rests on page 134 of a second-hand book colored in insight & imagination.. Hitting you, over and over again- each time closer than the last- like that feeling you get when your favorite song comes onto a Pandora station.

The happiness waits for you, knowing you'll find her at some point; a giant game of hide and seek that lasts a lifetime. It calls on you to keep seeking, because it will still be hiding- behind the blanket of heartbreak & the closet of hard lessons from the past. The "hotter" you get, the greater it actually feeling.
