For I saw the persistance in your eyes
Truth hidden victoriously , apparent only the lies .
It's gonna be alright I say .
Our voices getting feeble each day.
For Maybe I had only seen u laugh all the time .
U spread smiles like it cost a dime.
So I try to shatter the walls u built around you.
And bring in everything . Love , care , protection to name a few.
An epitome of sunshine
I thought you were quintessentially fine .
Thoughts unwritten , words unsaid .
Eyes full of tears, your feelings mislead.
A beautiful heart down the lane.
Not a single try to assuage your pain .
For flowers wither and rivers get dry.
I thought u were an optimist and u never cry.
But then I saw it in your eyes .
Tad bit hope and sore lies .
Carrying the hurt ,the bruises and the world.
Happiness and smiles far hurled .
Acting as if all were right , when everything was wrong .
Resembling a cheerful playlist with a melancholic song.
For the tad bit hope reached me .
Transparently and wholly now I see .
An oxymoron- a cold mess and a furnace .
Lacking every happiness.
Yet smiling with infinite tries.
I want u to be safe , sound , not a tear in those eyes .
Happy like u look , not a poker face all the time .
A rigid stone yet as soft as slime .
I'll Slightly tap ur arms while u fall asleep .
Singing lullabies until your eyes close and u finally give in a leap.
Until all the pain goes away ,far enough to never come back.
Until there's nothing u think there is to lack.
Until the tears desiccate
Until I see happy YOU replicate.
Until the torment becomes mild .
Until u are nothing but a happy child .
Until u don't have to cope.
As long as there is a tad bit hope.
