All Art, like all Love, has its roots in Heartache.
Solitude
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
For the sad old earth must borrow it's mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
I fell in love with you the second I layed eyes on you, it had nothing to do with the way you looked, there was something in your eyes, then I found out what was in your heart.

Hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all
The world will not end when God grants it.
It will end when the last heart is broken

Masks
Hidden in this secret corner
I keep my many masks
I have a mask for each occasion
Be it a joyous or sad one
And in this one long rendezvous
I don my many masks
And the fellows all around me
Are decked in their fancy dress too
I move amongst the many people
Making conversation with each of them
To some i borrow the visage of a clown
Others, an intimidating frown
And together everyone of us
Take part in this grand charade
Where each of us wear a fancy dress
And pretend to be someone else
In this secret corner of my heart
I hide my many masks
To each person I light a different face
As they present themselves too
In this fancy dress
And in this grand masquerade
I wear my many masks
For a am a man for many faces
And this mask i wear is just one
