Don’t Ask Me Why
Don’t ask me why, alone in dismal thought,
In times of mirth, I’m often filled with strife,
And why my weary stare is so distraught,
And why I don’t enjoy the dream of life;
Don’t ask me why my happiness has perished,
Why I don’t love the love that pleased me then,
No longer can I call someone my cherished--
Who once felt love will never love again;
Who once felt bliss, no more will feel its essence,
A moment’s happiness is all that we receive:
From youth, prosperity and joyful pleasantry,
All that is left is apathy and grief...

Happy Engagement Tara and Ezra
To two good friends
May happiness be with you always.
Love has sometimes a strange way
of bonding people together.
It has to sometimes show them
what they would be like
without one another.
My friends know only too well this is true
and the heartaches it brings.
Then getting back together,
they find love stronger than before.
Love cements this bond
with an engagement,
a commitment to one another
to journey on into future happiness.
In a world filled with troubles and strife
no road into the future
is only filled with happiness.
Sometimes that road maybe rocky
and other times heaven sent.
No matter what the road may be like,
you can ride out any storm,
so long as you remember,
every storm can bring love closer
than it was before.
You will find more happiness
than you realised you had.
The deeper love grows the longer it will last.
Therefore my two friends
I dedicate this poem to you.
May your lives be filled
with the happiness you both so richly deserve.
Happy Engagement to you both
and a long and prosperous life together.
It comes with love,
from David and Vera

Love, your happiness is my happiness.....
My life's greatest happiness is to be convinced my love to you
I am grateful to you for making me happy through out my life
I have never known love until I met you and your love touched
my heart and brought so much happiness in me
Today, you made me to see everything in a new life and you
want me to know how those happiness could make me happy
I found my happiness is to love you and to be loved from you
Sometime, I miss you so much and your absence is very painful
But when I carry your heart within me then my happiness is shining
When I am sad then your sweet words brings me happiness
and my soul get enough strength when it join your heart
When my heart wants to know the meaning of ' love'
then your love is making me to believe the truth of love
Without you there is no happiness in my life and with you
my life is full of hopes and my dream will come true
When you hold me in your arms then my heart
never want to let me go because your happiness is
my happiness. I love you so much my love.

Happiness is not a thing called Joe
Happiness is not a thing called Joe,
Happiness doesn't have a name,
If you discovered love and God,
Then you have happiness and fame.
Happiness is not the wind, Maria,
Happiness is love with a friend,
If you have friends and family,
Then that is happiness to send.
Love isn't sex and a one night stand,
Love is there for who will take your hand,
Love is wonderful, and simply grand,
Love is a heart that takes to understand.
If you have happiness, then you have love,
If you have love, happiness is also there,
One does not exclude the other, not ever,
You will possess both in this endeavor.

When Love Is Given Love Is Sent
In my mind,
I am there with such love.
For you.
And for you I wish the best,
Of all the happiness...
You want and expect to get.
When love is given love is sent.
In these days and times we live,
There is nothing more I wish to give...
To you,
But love.
And I want it felt around you.
To increase that feeling within you too.
When love is given love is sent.
And whether or not,
I am there in your view...
Let us both know that love is meant.
Let us both realize,
When love is given...
Love is sent!

Wedding anniversary
Wedding anniversary
A toast to two hearts who 25yrs ago
Started a hard journey together to grow
Love filled two hearts with gentle joy
Giving them many things to enjoy
Through sun, rain or stormy weather
Warm bright love kept them together
Love shone on throughout the years
Through joy, laughter, tears and fears
Together they fought the trials of life
So today still stand as husband and wife
In the life they've created together
May happiness be theirs today and forever
I send congratulations and heartfelt wishes, too,
For joyful happiness and love in everything you do.
Eluding Happiness
The bliss of happiness,
is something I always seem to miss,
Is it beautiful to be happy?
I can see the joys of happiness...
but how can you truly know something exists if you cannot feel it yourself?
Happiness might have tried to enter my heart at some point...
But what was the point where I denied?
Should I have let it in....
Would I have been a differant person?
So many questions arise in this moment,
To see the lives happiness touches,
This final question gets me ever time.....
Why can't happiness Touch the life thats mine.

How Could You
We started dating when i told you i felt the same as you.
I was afraid at first to tell you.
Now I understand why I didn't want to tell you in the first place.
If I hadn't I wouldn't feel this way.
Yesterday you said 'I Love You' so I wrote it in my diary.
Now you are saying goodbye to me.
How could you hurt me like this?
You filled me with happiness.
Then you ripped it away.
How could you love me before but not today?
My wretched life is just a waste,
So maybe i'll end it today.
After all love i'll never find.
Because when I think I do I'm left with nothing but tears in my eyes.

Have You Ever Been In Love?
In the morning light
Half awake and half asleep
Have you ever laid there thinking
Was it all a dream?
But you reach out and shes there
Every moment, everywhere
Have you ever been in love?
Have you ever felt
How far a heart can fall
Have you ever stayed up waiting
For a telephone call
Just to hear her say hello
cause you miss each other so
Have you ever been in love?
Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
cause youd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What its all about
And when shes far away
Have you ever felt the need to stray
And tried and then discovered
It just doesnt pay
cause with her, you can be true
And with her, you can be you
Have you ever been in love?
Have there been times to laugh
And times you really want to cry
Finding reasons to believe her
cause youd die a little if she lied
And when in times of doubt
Have you ever tried to work it out
But still she leaves you wondering
What its all about
And when the night comes down
Can you call your house a home
Do you dream youre still together
And wake up alone
Have you ever been in love
The way that Im in love
Have you ever been in love?

And I felt it like your so depressed
And my whole buzz broke like nothing

My so look to feel so good, I want everything now it likes me
My love will never die

And my so good I felt so bad
Like hell maybe

Cant do in an hour

And I felt like I could not live I said no hey, make it not mine
My love will never die

My love will never die
My love will never die
My love will never die
My love will never die

should I know
what I'm missing
what's to stop
look and listen
feel love
to be in love
around
anyone can hold a promise
not everyone can feel honored
to be in love
to feel love around
suddenly I'm
giving speech
let me be
what I need
if you're enough
for me
many times
while you sleep
I'm dreaming of
what to keep
you know your wish
hold it true
to slay the things
that trouble you
suddenly I'm
out of reach
listen here
feel me
just believe
just believe
you'll see
to feel love
to be in love
all around
hold the truth
if you want it
if you don't
I will flaunt it
to feel love
to be in love
all around
when you're young
you can promise
anything that you wanted
to be in love
to feel love
around
suddenly I'm
learn to speak
from my heart
I will see
bring happiness
just happiness
for you and me
to feel love
to be in love

to be in love

to feel love
to be in love

to be in love
to feel love

I know your wish
I hold it true
(feel love all around)
to hide the things
that trouble you
(feel love all around)
suddenly I'm
out of reach
(feel love all around)
let me speak
of my peace
(feel love all around)
[draw from me / dropping me?]
what you need
(feel love all around)
you'll never hate
or hurry me
(feel love all around)
(to feel love)
(to be in love)

Love Should Never Feel Like This
Somebody told me love's a beautiful thing
And when I found it all the bells would just ring
The sun would shine and all the birds would sing
Then I met you
I searched the planet for that magical girl
I walked a million miles all over the world
I found the oysters, but never the pearls.
Then I met you...
I can't eat
I can't sleep
I feel sick
I'm so weak
Love should never feel like this
I must be doing something wrong
I've never felt this way before
Walk in the bathroom and I take a deep breath
Look in the mirror and it scares me to death
Look like a junkie that's been strung out on meth
Since I met you
I can't eat
I can't sleep
I feel sick
I'm so weak
Love should never feel like this
I must be doing something wrong
I've never felt this way before
Love should never feel like this
I must be doing something wrong
I never felt this way before
Oh, ignorance was always bliss
Love should never feel like this
Love should never, ever feel like this
I've never felt this way before
I must be doing something wrong
No, Love should never, ever feel like this
I must be doing something wrong
I've never, ever felt this way before
What's wrong with me!

Our Love
(phillip damien)
Our love I could never live without it
Our love call my name and Ill be there
Our love no one here could ever doubt it
Our love your heart our love
Time has said that when were together
There wont be a never to keep us apart
I believe this love will grow stronger
Our days will grow longer
Your loves in my heart
There were times when I thought that we would never be
Two hearts that beat as one
Now I know that its real
The way that I feel
And baby I want to say that you make my life a joy
Our love I could never live without it
Our love call my name and Ill be there
Our love no one here could ever doubt it
Our love your heart our love
Now I know that well be together
Forever and ever till the end of time
Heres a love that burns like a fire
Yet filled with desire
And sweeter than wine
Could it be that we are living in a fantasy
Some say it cant be true
Now I just cant conceal
All this passion the thrill
Come let me show me that I love you
Its true I do
Our love I could never live without it
Our love call my name and Ill be there
Our love no one here could ever doubt it
Our love your heart our love
My love and your love
I said together not without it
Not anyone could ever doubt it
Said our love together forever and ever
In love the sky I fly above
And I cant fly without our love

Im in love again
This time I think that its for real
Im in love again
I think I know just how you feel
Its like waking early on christmas morning
And finding the toy of your dream
And thats the way you make me feel, girl
And thats the way that it should be
Im in love again
This time I think that its for sure
Im in love again
Its what Ive lived my whole life for
Youve given me such happiness
Youve given me so much joy
Youve changed my sadness into gladness
How could I ask for more...
Im in love, Im in love again
Im in love, Im in love again
Ooh... Im in love again

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...

Of Happiness
Of Happiness
What is happiness? I question and contemplate,
Even a simple answer invites an endless debate.
“I am happy”, very easy to demonstrate and say,
But most of the times it evades and eludes away.
Happiness can’t be bought or bargained by any,
Love can bring bliss said sages and saints many.
One who is in love, lives in world of happiness,
Soul is enlightened, mind is clear and doubtless.
Eyes observe beauty of nature in all His creation,
Peaceful and fearless one become in such situation.
Divinity of love makes a human more humane,
With compassionate and altruistic attitude main,
Love takes us nearer to god, a realm of happiness,
Succor it gives at the time of hardship and distress.
The bliss, the euphoria, the ecstasy and much more,
Love brings all these, is a reality as sung in folklore.

Oh happy day
Oh happy day
When Mary finds
She is entwined
With Grace Devine
Oh happy day
Oh happy day
Oh joyful day
Oh joyful day
When Jesus lay
On a pile of hay
Oh how the angels play
On Christmas day
Oh joyful day
Oh joyful day
Oh love filled day
Oh love filled day
When Jesus lay
In a lonely tomb
From the afternoon
Till he rose on Easter day
Oh love filled day
Oh love filled day
Oh happy day
Oh joyful day
Oh love filled day
Entered the earth
In the most humble way
Taught us how to pray
Took our sins away
Oh happy day
Oh joyful day
Oh love filled days

From You
I am from laughter
From laughs that bring tears to eyes
As you enjoy the happiness of the one you love
I from happiness
From the happiness that comes from knowing love
Love that heals all wounds and covers all hurt
I am from peace
From the peaceful image
Of a newborn dreaming
From calm voices
Tranquility
I am from hugs and kisses
From love displayed at all times
Even when anger was justified and expected
I am from laborious days and nights
From times when even diamonds
Would crack
I am from perseverance
I am from determination
I am from self-sacrifice
I am from
You

Love & Happiness
Well were dropping our bombs
In the southern hemisphere
And people are starving
That live right here
And theyre tearing down walls
In the name of peace
And theyre killing each other
In the middle east
Chorus:
But love and happiness
Have forgotten our names
And theres no value left
In love and happiness
They raise the price of oil
And they censor our mouths
If you are a young couple today
Forget buying a house
And we wage our wars
In the neighbourhoods
We kill the young to feed the old
And men that aint no good
Chorus:
Yeah, but love and happiness
Have forgotten our names
And theres no value left
In love and happiness
So if you sell arms
Or if you run dope
You got respect
And you got hope
But the rest of us die
On your battle fields
With wounds that fester and bleed
But never heal
Chorus:
Yeah love and happiness
Have forgotten our names
And theres no value left
In love and happiness
And love and happiness
Yeah love and happiness
Have forgotten our names
And theres no value left
In love and happiness
