Old Wine
Though my thoughts be heavy,
 I’ll show my heart as light.
 Just to keep you laughing,
 To keep your smile bright.
 
 As the day is ending,
 We’ll say our last goodbyes.
 I’ll flash one more smile
 As I keep living this lie. 
 
 But as I’m getting nearer,
 My heart getting heavier,
 Feeling pressure on my chest
 As I’m opening my door.
 
 The night, it is aging.
 Just like that old wine,
 That I will drink steady 
 Just to pass the time.
 
 The time I’ve spent alone,
 Searching for some bliss,
 But you would never know 
 That something, something’s 
 Gone amiss.
 
 Because by persistence
 To keep you convinced
 You’ll never see a tear roll
 Or a frown slip.
 But if you were to see,
 I’ll assure I’m okay,
 But you won’t see me 
 The very next day.
 
 Because the night is aging
 Just like that old wine,
 That I will drink steady
 Just to pass the time.
