I feel you in my belly
but I’m trying to act normal
my entire body is changing
and it’s all because of you
I want that happy,
happiness from within,
that emanates like the beam of the sun,

but I can’t feel the wins
deafening music,
clicking glasses,
spilling drinks,

staring right at me
If I could paint a picture
of the life I want,
I’ll choose lots of sunshine
rainbows and butterflies.
I’ll choose lots of laughter
peace and joy.
