They say this
You will look back on this and laugh one day
They say this to comfort
And maybe so if I grow to be you
Old and cynical
Laughing at a lost love
Anything to distract your sore heart
And your night-time longing for youth
But I would rather
Sit and smile
Not denying my heart the right to feel past pain still
And I would like to think
That somewhere
He is regretting
The rolling tears he caused
