Blistering Reality
Feeling your eyes upon me
I sense the fixation of your thoughtful glance
Wondering what that thought may be
If only you had given us a chance
Outlandish thoughts consume my being
My mind racing as I meet your stare
Ideas of what could have been
Sometimes make this cross a difficult one to bear
As smiles are exchanged
The pain has vanished from my eyes
I once again live for the the moment
Disregarding how the heart cries
Gazing desperately into your soul
I search for something I may have missed
Needing only one glimmer of hope
To send me spiraling back into my love-sick abyss
Acknowledging a tinge of disappointment
My first instinct is to smile
For I have grown accustomed to my foolishness
The choice is mine, to live in denial
An abundance of laughter now fills the room
Setting my spirit aglow
More joyful I have never been
Though true happiness I may never know
