Is laughter always mixed with tears?

Is love always mixed with pain?

I seek answers...

As pain sears through my heart.

Love is a thief...

That robs me of my freedom;

That snatches my soul away from me,

My treasure trove is empty.

Love is pain...

Of a magnitude unknown

Love demands more than I possess;

Do not spare me sweet love,

Let me revel in your splendour,

Let me reflect your glow on my cheek,

Let me drink the pleasure in pain,

And devour the pain in pleasure.
