Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Rested Crimson eyes reaching, reaching
Sleep and orphans dance on the rim
The grip of gumption wrestles
the drain of dismal days
and hardened night sky
permanent sand
welded lid
sleeping

If I gave you a rose, would it help!?
The pursuit of our happiness!?
Would it just lay there unclaimed!?
Would you even want it!?
I need to know this!.
Want to know this!.
Do you care!?
Do you!?
YES!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wow, who knew this would come up today!.
Trying to think of happiness!.
Let alone to pursue it!.
Maybe it is good now!.
Sometimes we need to
be reminded
to just go
for it

Anticipation leading the way
Thoughts of Nirvana in my view
Seeking the path to true joy
On the road less travelled
Briefly I was lost
Now I am sure
Grace found me
Instead

Happiness is just out of my reach
For me, it was a life long chase
Never wanting to give up
Knowing I would succeed
I approach the end
The finish line
Then I see
Your face

What price to pay for your future known!?
To taste before tomorrow breaks!.
Would life shortened be ok!?
Or perhaps first born's breath!?
Maybe sunless days!?
Or simply death!?
For seeing!.!.
