I hated it when they said
\"happiness is a choice\"
it didn\'t feel like it, not for me
it was impossible to be happy
I tried and tried but my mind
wouldn\'t let me at all
I resented people who told me
this, \"happiness is a choice\"
no it isn\'t, I dare say now
it is not always a choice
but what i\'ve learned now
is happiness is not a choice
but choosing to try to heal
and to try and get better, happier
that is a choice.
