Hello my love, so glad you came,
Goodbye my love, wish you could have stayed.
Smiling as I move forward,
Crying as I glance behind.
Today I am happy, today I am sad.
I’ve been waiting for you my entire life,
I will miss you for the rest of my days.
Enjoying the happiness of today,
Avoiding the sadness of today.
Happiness as you kneel before me, ring in hand,
Sadness as you kneel before me, ring in hand.
I am happy and I cry as I say yes,
I am sad and I cry as I say yes
A new beginning, hopeful and joyous,
A heart wrenching end, painful and hard.
Will you someday too be part of my past?
One of the lost loves,
Almost forgotten, but never forgotten.
Yesterday I said yes to someone else,
Tomorrow I may say yes to someone new.
But today, my love, I say yes to you.
Forever I am yours, forever you are mine,
Or at least until we say goodbye.
You are the happiness of my today,
You are the sadness of my tomorrow.
I love you, I lose you,
I need you, I let you go.
Hello my love, goodbye my love.
Today I am happy, today I am sad.

Poetry: Happy and sad
He comes out from the doctor's office looking rather glum,
And sits upon a bench outside, chin resting on his thumb.
She
I am happy to have my heart alive
Be it sadness, aloofness or mirth
It is difficult to cope and survive
When you do not
With an angry, self-conscious set of your jaw,
you hiss that it isn't fair.
You send at your offender a hideous glare,
and
by Carol Gioia
Little boy happily running
to catch up with his big brother,
a balloon clutched in one hand,
an ice cream cone in the other.
The last time we spoke
I had to strain to hear your
Tired, drained and strained voice
Gaunt against the hot oppressive air
