The Good Side of Bad

I tried to hate.
I tried to scorn.
I tried to change fate .
But i was wrong.
I always taste the good side.
Even after a bad bite.
Went behind the frowns.
Came back with beautiful smiles...
I see the beauty.
 Masked beneath the ugly.
I can feel the angel inside a monster.
I hear sweet laughter.
When you cry.
Captured the calmness.
In tremendous storms.
I feel the happiness.
Building inside your sorrow.
For today's twilight.
Prepares for tomorrow.
You have a great strength..
To dominate your fragile weakness.
I see a loving heart.
Even after it was torn.
I can see the sun shining.
Beyond the dark clouds.
I see your fear drowning..
inside your courage.
And that pain.
Swiftly fading in your joy.
While the truth sings.
Behind the lies. 
Like that success.
Coming after a failure.
I've seen the best...
Coming out of the worst.
Like that peace brewing.
After a civil war.
I see the good side in bad.
One of my many flaws.
I saw the light disguised by darkness.
