My lips taste of the tears
I cried in yesterday's world,
And I can smile as you feed
me words filled with laughter.
This is a temporary taste,
These sensations
silence
what would be my destination.

This sunshine filters through my gloom.
It lights my way
and warms my face.
I can see
down this narrow road,
The end beckons like a lonely lover.
For once I know what I want,
and you are on my list.

I find sorrow in this joy,
you will leave me before the year is over.
And there is happiness in this melencholy,
I will have you now,
if not forever.
This seems enough,
When to love is a tragedy,
and there is no more time at hand.
