Happiness and Sorrow
Bam
Glass shatters
As frail as you are, you are still too strong to go
Leave and never come back
Hear laughter yet cannot laugh
See smiles yet cannot smile
You want to leave, a door opens
Yet someone's in-front, blocking your way
You have to pay, for pain and sorrow are free
Happiness, laughter
That's what costs
You spend half your time
Thinking about people, places and things to do
Stop
you skip a beat
A happy time
A warm hug
It' gone never to return
