I Wish You Would Still

I wish you would still smile
The way you did the first time we met.
Timid at first, growing slowly, ending a full blown grin.
Smile like the way you smile
     when I say you're beautiful and I love you,
     but you think you're ugly and say I'm lying.

I wish you would still laugh
The way you did with me that night.
Loud, carefree, infectious, you.
Laugh like the way you laugh at me
     when I try to crack a joke at 4am,
     but you say I'm funnier than the pun itself.

I wish you would still enjoy life, my love
True, it is a rollercoaster ride.
There are ups, there are downs, there are pauses then go's.
Enjoy whichever part you're at
     when going up, soar,
     when going down, let go.

Most of all, I hope you would still be happy
Even when I am already there up above.
Nothing is better than knowing you're that.
So cry, curse, get angry, grieve,
     but promise that after some time,
     you'll be happy again.
Even without me.
