Shakespearean tragedy

Capsuled hope, taken three times a day
With resignation
After each bout of disappointment
Life is a fatal disease

He asks you to smile; she asks you to laugh
Your confused face distorts somewhere between a laugh and a smile
Forced beyond enforceable
Weighed down by the wreckage of tattered dreams

Deliberation in small joys to help forget bigger sorrows
A delusion everyone is happy to create
Ah life! a chic-flick to the world
A Shakespearean tragedy to yourself
