Stop telling me to be happy
It’s all too much today
I’m just trying to survive right now
Whatever comes my way
How do you define it anyway?
It’s different for you and me
So measuring me with your scale
Is a waste of time you’ll see
I think I’d rather just be content
And get through, reduce the stress
Not be anxious, learn to breath
Feeling strong and not a mess
Perhaps you could share a moment with me
Allow me time to talk
Ask me nothing but answers will come
And once again I can walk
And smile again without clenched teeth
Begin to look ahead
So don’t ask me please to be happy
Let me be content instead
In my own time
