I envy you
Your fame
And the speculation
Surrounding your name
I envy
Your beauty
So easily portrayed
And the portrait
Priceless
In its rarity
I do not envy
Your sad sad eyes
Or the secrets
Abounding behind them
I don't envy you
Your tragic life
That made you lose
The ability to smile
I don't envy you
The master behind the artwork
That knew now
What could pull a grin
Out of the recesses
Of your despairing face
I envy your notorious fame
But not the story
Behind the smile.
There is always a light
