Behind the twinkle of your gaze Past the walls you so fervently constructed At times, I see your pain I feel the anguish in your eyes The quivering of your lip quickly forced away by a misplaced grin Surrounded by the emptiness of this void we call life I wish nothing more than to hear those alluring three words The glow you radiate envelopes any room Your smile casts any doubt I have in life How can someone be so incredible? I am the lucky one You show how utterly beautiful life can be That this existence is not some random succession of meaningless events With you, life takes shape life retains hope
