Disappointment

Disappointment was never as lovely as she Hope caught in my heart fighting delicately She's always the dream that never fades upon waking The cause and the comfort for all of my shaking I like to glance over then turn carelessly Just to see if it makes her come over to me Her smile is infectious and wipes away fear If it fades then I show her that I'm always near Sometimes we are split by self-built barricades So I break through our silence of awkward blockades And no matter how often old times we recall We'll forever laugh and the false walls will fall They all think I'm crazy my truth to repress Do anything for her and never confess Yet silently love I continue to show her It's enough just to feel that I'm getting to know her But despite my devotion and adoration There still remains space for one complication The spark in my eyes grows colder and dim When I am reminded she's happy with him Surely love wants the best for the person it's for? Not selfishly trying their joy to ignore But however hard jealousy my heart will dent If my darling is happy, then I am content.
