"Never Become"

we will never be happy,

because our expectation of happiness

is always evolving.

and as we evolve everything changes.

even the love we have now 

becomes something of yesterday 

and the anticipation of the things

we desire tomorrow;

are the things that fill our emptiness

today.

and as we evolve;

nothing stays the same.

we will always want more

even if what we have now is enough.

this is the destruction of being

human.

we create the illusion of

happiness to make sense of the 

disappointments we have yet 

to live.

and sometimes we do find happiness,

but even so, sometimes it is not meant 

to last forever

and that within itself 

is a beautiful thing to evolve from.
