Undiagnosed and Dangerous



An unusual happiness
fill my cup to the top
and it overflows
I try so hard to make it stop
I am tired of losing this feeling
It's new to me
But no matter how hard
I try to conceal it
It shows up everywhere
The floor behind me is covered
with happiness spilling away from me
And as others step in it
It takes over their existence
And they try to hit it, it's a disease
overtaking the world
Undiagnosed and dangerous
nothing can stop it
as it continues to spread
more and more enjoy it
