What Lurks Behind

If I thought,
Life was always wonderful,
For everyone,
And everything,
I'd be naive.
For even in my darkened world,
I know the truth,
That in each laugh there is a tear,
And everyone has their fears,
For what you may think is happening,
May only be another plot.
So watch more closely,
And listen love,
Everyone,
Hides something.

Neither ignorance,
Nor bliss,
Should blind from what surrounds,
So instead of tears of joy,
Or laughs in fits,
Think about this.

Behind each joy,
There seems to be,
Something lurking,
Just unseen,
It tells you what you may not know,
And listens to your heart.
It points out that,
Even though,
Things should be,
Wonderful,
Somethings telling you,
It won't end well.

But,
When you learn to cast aside,
All it tries to teach you,
Then you'll have,
True happiness,
And a chance,
At your own,
Joy and bliss,
Love and kiss,
Another moment,
Of purity,
And that is truly,
All you need.
