An aphorism on the Internet had pronounced
"We hear the melody when happy;
we hear the lyric when not"
INCOMPLETE ....
the happy tune of course plays happily
and with us when we are happy;
the sad song brings the sad news
of our sadness like pieces of headlines or trenchant op-eds;
its melody haunts
but for completeness ...
a sad song is sometimes acknowledged when happy;
a happy song is like an unbecoming mirage
that our eyes hear through the mist
when they are sad.
Look at me, even sadness
has become a thesis of an emotion.
Perhaps then, sadness is born
in the gap of love and love's-lost.
If so true, it soon follows that
true sadness born in the gap of true love and love's-lost
will have to be borne
Isn't it, my friend ?
