Joy and Sorrow
By Soulchild333
This is the intersection where joy and sorrow meets
its funny that we are both seeing each other here now
I didn’t expect you to meet me halfway, but I appreciate your effort
the epitome of our love could be a wounded solider in battle
or maybe an artist who has lost their direction in todays world
not trying to contradict our intimate connection that we built
despite the fact that my blood boils with apprehension and guilt
and it would be ideal if life could be as simple as lines that rhymed
but unfortunately in the real world you never know what to expect
only a fool would try to guess what happens next
and if anyone would know this statement to be true
it’s me
in my mind I turned you into someone who is always understanding
and could never do wrong not to mention could never see a cloudy day
for you are only human, and in a moment of selfishness
I completely disregarded the fact that you could disappear
for I am only human also
so please forgive me for my expectations and my complications
my passive aggressiveness through my constant hesitation
This is the intersection where joy and sorrow meets
although its an unfamiliar place to see you
I rather see you here then not see you at all
I don’t want to complain
I just want to maintain
I don’t want to see you fall
so many eyes but can’t believe that I’m still blind
I don’t want us to be astray on our travels
to find peace of mind
although this is the intersection where joy and sorrow meets
we won’t be here for very long
our journey has just began
and we will continue to remain strong
