Beneath Is the Real
BENEATH IS THE REAL
Under your courage
I could see some fear
Those smiles on you
Are wrappers of tears
The love you proclaimed
I realised are hatred in disguise
Why pretend joyous
In an ocean of sorrow
Oh, my beloved
I have since hate to love
For life is a cheat
With all false promises
And expectations hardly met
My tears are dry
Though my face is still wet
Not with tears of sorrow
But with some juicy joy
Dear life,
Do not wait for me
No, not any more
I have resolved to move on
All alone, without any promise or threat
I am afraid
The promises are misplaced
I am relieved
All those threats are empty
I am happy
My journey is full of hope
Of an unending joy
Because i move so lonely
In the company created by life
