not everyone can be happy

will a fresh
coat
of paint, change them,
suddenly
make them
content and happy.
i don't think so, but i
try to
please their troubled
souls
with more layers
of paint,
another coat.
pinks and blues,
tans
and golds,
a rainbow of colors.
and for a moment
the sun
comes out, and there's
a smile
upon their frown,
but that soon goes.
