The keys to happiness are held by them and thee, <br />To open the doors of my heart to feel sad and happy, <br />The strange display on the platform of trophies, <br />The names are many, who had held my emotional keys, <br /> <br />I was shocked and questioned many nights in bright light, <br />Depressed, confused, unguided and alone for the attest, <br />Calling cards, skype, voip and many more gadgets, <br />Not felt the peace that I wanted to enjoy the days, <br /> <br />When the individuals are born out of our young and old, <br />The experiences that they have acquired in overseas land, <br />The distanced relatives and friends from the heart of a loner, <br />I have retrieved the keys from everyone who needn’t control my life. <br /> <br />The world looks clearer and merrier than ever, <br />As my entangled emotions are no more loaned and in flare, <br />I have retrieved many of my emotional keys not overnight or by force, <br />But a few are returned to me with love, when they have their own.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-keys-to-happiness/
