The Happy Elephant

The night is over and curtains finally closing.

The crowd has left after their round of applause.

It's time we rip off our masks and be ourselves.

We have fooled them to think we're still in love with each other.

And you put on quite a show.

I must say you played your part, and like a star you played it so well.

And you should know that your performance made me strong enough.

I hope you're pleased with my performance as well.

Darling, this show is over.


* I thought I've always been in love with you. *
