Joy

Woe is my heart for Joy hath cast me by the way
She used to dance in my heart and uplift my day
Now Joy removes me from before her face

My love for Joy I cannot erase
The more I seek Joy the more she runs away
Oh woeful heart my secret love thou bewray.

"My dearest prince" to me Joy used to say
Now to her I'm a dog, outside sadly I bay
Joy used to draw close, now she flees and makes me chase

I cannot despise Joy, myself I will debase
I am wretched, and ugly, and an ofay
Joy is comely and lovely a crown jewel to gently inlay

To be again restored to Joy I pine away
To appreciate my compliments despite my cheesy way
Joy is a tree covered in snow, a dancer in lace

Oh Joy, the piece of my heart I gave you, do not misplace
Tears gush out the hole of the heart and cannot be stayed
I am lowly esteemed now in Joy's eyes so I am dismayed

I deserve Joy's scorn and her despiteful upbraid
Joy said "you're a fine young man" but now I'm the one she'll evade
I will continue to long for Joy's soft embrace

I heard Joy lament and her song brought light to my face
Joy makes me brave, she makes me never afraid
Even though Joy ignores me my love for her cannot be allayed

To comfort and love Joy to God my heart has prayed
No price to make me forget Joy can ever be paid
Oh how I wish in Joy's eyes I were restored to my place

Joy used to speak to my heart and make it gleefully race
"God bless you and talk to you soon" Joy used to say
Now Joy avoids me and spurns at my way

Oh Joy I can't stop caring even if the sky reflects my heart sadly gray
I wish you'd be sewed up even if it means I have to fray
Even if I have to lay in the dirt at your feet, step on me, you deserve a high place

Joy is offended at me, I deserve my sorrow and my disgrace
Joy admitted to me that my words have a way
But words fail me to describe how Joy made everything okay

So I will let Joy twist me and crush me like a piece of clay
My heart will keep beating for Joy though she stomps on it and casts me away
All the days of her life the Princess of Joy deserves above all women to be praised.
