Grief is the price you pay for having joy,
If I smile today,
Will I grieve tomorrow?
If my heart is so full,
Will it shatter tomorrow?
If not tomorrow,
The next day,
Next year?
When?
Maybe when I try and spread joy,
All I touch becomes grief.
If I’m aware of that,
Can I change it,
Or will grief always be the price for joy?
