THREE SECONDS OF HAPPINESS ‎

THREE SECONDS OF HAPPINESS ‎

WHY ME ON A RAILROAD

‎

‎

‎Why do I always have to be in the hot pot always

‎Why do I have to be on the hot spot so the grass does not get stepped on

‎Why does the knife always have to pass through my heart

‎Why do the cold days in the thick forest have to be my path while others get a sunny valley with everything

‎Feeling like a lost bride walking down the dark forest to her lover at the other side

‎No guests, just a snow floor and trees and this dark, dripping, freezing, creepy path

‎No father to hold her hand

‎No mother to wish her goodbye

‎No guests to gossip on the day

‎It's just heartbreaking to be an axe helping to break all the wood, yet left outside to die in the cold until I am needed to be used again

‎I finally get a normal sunshine

‎Blue sky

‎Green grass

‎Transparent lake

‎And a nice warm cabin

‎Just for a second and it all goes away

‎Making it feel like it's my punishment

‎For three seconds of happiness

‎And then the darkness returns, reminding me that happiness was never meant to stay long enough to become mine.
