Eternal Paradox

"I see jewels of starlight in your eyes,

And in your hair shines the moon.

I'm hopelessly inlove with you..."




Too foolish of me, I listened to your clever disguise!

I shouldn't have. I should have known where these stuffs could lead me.


You hurt me too much that I could hardly breathe...

I feel pain of piercing darts.

You've pushed me into a hole without a bottom.

You've led me to a journey where no angel would ever dare to walk by me.


"I'm hopelessly inlove with you..."



Stop it! Yeah, you're inlove.

I believe so coz you have stained the purest heart ever lived!

You're falling but you made a wise deceit.

Sad to say, you're falling but not for me.

You played with my innocent passion.


My heart now is bleeding,

I am in confusion amidst grief.

My mind says, "move away" but my heart says, "stay!"

I've loved you and I was true.


Tomorrow, when the sun shines on its peak,

I will no longer be weak.

I had, then, forgiven you.

Don't feel guilty for this agony will just pass.

Joy hasn't existed in me

But may it be with you, though with someone else.


And the eternal paradox, it says:


"How can we preserve joy without killing the joy of others?"
