Sweet Sorrow

By: Xie

Pain now a faded memory
Misery already forgotten word
Yet I cling on to my earthly prison
To cherish you my beautiful bird

I see the anguish on your face
Those tear stained eyes a testament
For the love you have for me
An ever-lasting monument

You know I couldn’t stand
To ever see you cry
To see you ache and wallow in misery
When you were meant to fly

I always bore the pain for us
And I would do it all over again
For you see my dearest love
I do not die in vain

Without you in my life
I would have never been complete
An ever wandering drifter
Denied of love’s sumptuous feast

Now I have no reason to regret
Nor have any unfinished tasks
You gave me everything
Everything I could for have ever asked
