Happy Ending

A mirror shows reflection Yet can also be distorted The sun shines light Yet can also cast a shadow A river flows and air gives life Yet can also be polluted Love fills the heart with kindness and joy Yet that can be diluted I try to think of something That will put a smile on my face I get off to a good start But then my smile dissipates For some reason All good things bring misery All the love I've ever known Always ends terribly All the efforts I have shown Prove to work ineffectively All the years that I have grown This happens repeatedly Now because of this It's hard for me to start A new relationship And open up my heart Once I realize I am beautiful on the inside and out A grey cloud comes And confuses me with doubt It's not like I'm asking for a fairy tale story I just want some glory And to lose my despair I am so distraught It's like I sold my soul to the devil But I was never told Can I buy it back? I just found out that it was sold. I hold the burdon of every bodies pain To ease their tears Their pain is what I gain Because of this I ask for just one thing And that one thing could only be Something called a happy ending
