Under the Deep Sorrow

And under the deep sorrow of my heart There is a deeper happiness beneath Though neither can be measured on a chart The sorrow in my breast cannot be taught But human beings each discover grief Underneath the centre of our hearts Sorrow is no fish that can be caught Acceptance,toleration may relieve Though neither can be measured on a chart The happiness below the dark unsought This feeling is surprising but believe It’s underneath the sorrows of the heart From our love and loss a self is wrought As if our self must first be reconceived Nothing can be measured on a chart Trust the darkness, for Love is no thief And neither does it ever want deceit Feeling joy and sorrow in my heart No life or love is measured on a chart
