Tears
Is it joy or pain,
Can't even understand,
And yet wailing,
For that lost heart'
Lost an gone,
Gone with the winds,
Leaving that emptiness,
That the heart deserve not,
That the eyes cant withstand,
Afresh they rain,
Rain with tears,
This is what yesterday left,
and still today brings the same,
Is this joy or pain,
where is your turbulent smile?
Is there a joy in your heart'
while mine is hurt and still,
but you can just remain still,
you have a heart of stillness,
ironically sympathetic,
just to lean on me,
when you left,
a second chance left'
left not for me,
yet that is a lost soul,
for ever lost,
is this joy or pain?
