I was alright.
And then in a flash,
I wasn't.
All that could have been
All that was,
Hit me suddenly
And without warning.
Pain washed over me,
Tinged with sadness.
Yet through some effort,
Some power
From some where,
I turned all that hurt
Into a bittersweet happy.
Don't ask how,
For I'm not sure
How I can smile
While looking at a face
That's lost to me
Smiling with another.
