Merry moments

They come along when least expected.. You smile, you laugh, you sing with joy. All is well, all's forgiven. A burden lifted, a heartache subsides.
No sooner had you begun to enjoy, the moment comes to an end.
The laughter dies, the merriment ends.
The moment is past. Will it return? Maybe, but not soon.
All that is left is a smile on your face. It keeps you going for some time.
Then, the smile fades.
And you yearn for another....

Have I ever told you that I hate you?

yes my friend. and then they return as always. life is but a sinusoidal wave. or something like that.

yearning for smiles is painful.

speaking of smiles, i've become rather adept at giving fake ones now.

lets stop yearning. lets stop looking around everywhere for what we want. lets find it for ourselves, within ourselves. rather than rely on others, depend on just about every stranger.

@confused and baffled
oh i dont think anybody actually goes around begging for reasons to smile. at some point or the other, we find it in ourselves.
but it is humanly impossible to be smiling all the time. and some people choose to write when they're not smiling, because that's what brings back the smile on their faces. Choosing to write what you feel at some point of time and trying to capture certain moments (melancholic as they may be) doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re suicidal.

did i make any sense?

And I'm not suicidal, worry not!
