My Beloved
Smile, smile, smile for me
For that smile…
…is my only light in the darkness
…is my one joy in all this pain
…is the thing I look forward to all day
…is the comfort through my tears
…is my treasure
Keep on smiling,
So that someday,
I might be able to smile,
A smile that is true.
Because I know it will never be the same,
I will just stay beside you
Because I know your love will never return,
I will love you by myself
Because I know your words never hold truth,
I will cry in the silent depths of my heart
Because I know my wishes are hopeless,
I will keep my heart quiet while it still hopes
Because I know you love someone else,
I stand here as a friend to you
Because I love you so much
I can only do so much
What is beauty?
It is the extravagance and
The elegance of a feeling, or a thing
So I can say,
The sadness beautifully descends
The loneliness beautifully create tears
The heartbreak beautifully tortures the soul
The guilt beautifully constricts the wishes and hopes
The love beautifully created all this
In a beautifully melancholic story
That is my life.
