Love is All That I Know

Life’s trivial joys sometimes linger inside
There may be no laughter, yet there they abide
Elated , but silent, my happy heart sings
For a small bit of gladness life suddenly brings

Life’s most bitter sorrow is secretly kept
The wound is unseen, yet through years I have wept
The scar deep inside still produces some tears
For the beautiful dreams that were lost through the years

The splendor of music can open the heart
For tears of emotion to quickly depart
Both sorrow and joy fill the life I have led
I know not from which one the teardrops are shed

My heart flashes back to the days long ago
When the melody plays, love is all that I know
