Induced Happiness

Lamenting in your songs,

I look at myself.

Dressing like you would like,

Smiling like you would want.

Lachrymal and smiles,

Merged into existence.

No!

Not 'cause of happiness,

But,

Of the insufferable love.

The kind which plunges into your heart,

Holds the very essence of your being,

And rips off the very soul,

Rips off the side,

Which is me.

Then, I become you,

And my sadness

Induces smiles

Just 'cause you want me to.

I wear my best smile,

I play into my best attire,

And just hope in my mind,

That you are happy,

Seeing me happy.
