I am the sweetest Fool ever known <br /> <br />A Black soul of love unsown <br /> <br />A description so strange, you wonder why <br /> <br />To tell you the truth, you’d begin to cry <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />For I do love a lover’s love <br /> <br /> So limitless like the sky above <br /> <br />But even the sky has an end <br /> <br />Where nothingness and darkness starts it trend <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />So I guess my love limits has finally reach <br /> <br />And the holes in my heart has spoken their speech <br /> <br />And shown me to embrace the loving hate <br /> <br />It also brings joy and happiness, in of its own state <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />You may be confused, the loving hate? <br /> <br />It’s a dish served cold on a black plate <br /> <br />It’s as mellow and sweet as a home cook meal <br /> <br />It’s the feeling of no feeling, a deal of no deal <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> With its joy loneliness is around the corner <br /> <br />Oh how I wish this dark joy can last much longer <br /> <br />But all good things must come to an end <br /> <br />And once again sadness becomes my friend <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Joy always goes whether it’s good or dark <br /> <br />Circle of life, Oh what a heartless track <br /> <br />After joy comes sorrow and sorrow brings misery <br /> <br />No matter how you run misery is always misery <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I have enjoyed the joy of living clean <br /> <br />Enjoyed the joy of the darkness within <br /> <br />But both left me shattered like a priceless vase <br /> <br />Forgotten like a poor man criminal case <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />So this I say this, enjoy your joy <br /> <br />For misery comes like a childhood toy<br /><br />Reginald Francois<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/after-joy-comes-misery/
