Crying Smiles

Donโt think that this smiling face of
mine is happy.
There are a thousand sorrows in my single
laughter,
The strange nightingale draws the dice
in vain,
Those
who will laugh for the sake of laughing cried.
Smiles
made me wail,
Red cheeks groaned in pain,
My lips could not embellish the words,
Smiles cried for tongues,
I said my life but
darling didnโt answer,
My soul consoled by dreams,
Scattered from the heart of faded love,
Smiles
cried for the ashes.
Itโs
a helpless wound, believe me.
The influences are gone in the past,
Broken glass window,
cried
for the tulles.
Friends
do not heal heartache,
You are the best of friendships,
The love of my heart consumed my life,
Smiles
cried for years.
Azeroฤlu,
I made you laugh,
I embroidered the loop on my lace,
Waiting patiently to die,
Laughs cried for
Situations.
