Please don’t let this feeling stop
I feel like a child again
but this time I am not afraid
I feel curious, not fearful
I feel new, not bitter
I am smiling like a child that
has found a new amusement
as I embrace and discover
the world around me
I think I am what they call…
HAPPY
it is a new feeling to me
but it makes life feel inviting
it makes this world feel warm
Please don’t let this feeling slip away
I want to see, feel and touch
because unlike the past
I want to feel again
