Absolute Happiness

There is no such thing called absolute happiness in this world
Its just a fleeting dream, making us all look like a child
dreaming about the world engulfed in a rainbow, painted in vibrant colors
A futile effort we make, as if trying to hold the waters in the palm
Making us look like fools, being laughed at by the very thing we chase!

The more we try to get closer to it, the more we find ourselves tangled
Struggling to break-through the invisible walls we build as we begin the chase
For the more we try to embrace it, the more bonds we have to make
Running.. gasping for the one breathe hoping to catch it...
Futile effort...

Just before you think you have reached it, it will slip away
Laughing back at you! As if looking down on the humans!
I am one of those, so are you! So is everyone!
We end up being the sore losers when we can't accept the fact
That there is no such thing called absolute happiness!

For we are weak... For I am weak!
No matter how much we try, at the end its going to be teh same!
We will lose important thing while chasing the invisible winds,
For there will be no going back,
Nor can we see what was left behind!

For the light is dimming,
and the clouds hide the warmth of the Sun!
This weird feeling creeping up the spine
Makes the chase even worse! Knowing how it is going to end!
Can the little heart remain strong,
Till the clouds pass by? Till the eyes see the clear skies!
Feel the warmth one more time!
For the words are getting weak... If not absolute happiness,
Just a glimpse of it before the chase ends!
