LAUGH

LAUGH

 

What’s the point?

Is it something I didn’t earn?

I should give and take

Retake,  retake, and retake again

Laughing at myself

I see my reflection in the mirror

Colorful like a swinging chandelier

We must face our fears

Even though we are not near them

Even though we can’t hear them

We become deaf to loud sounds

But hear the quiet winds that blow beneath our nostrils

Is it’s like every speech I've been speaking

Every sentence that ends

Or everything that is art

Laughter is what brings my life back to it’s start

It never rips it apart

 

It breaks the leaves on forbidden trees

Lives beneath the window are colorless seas.

Is Laughing the best medicine?

Should we laugh

Because it feels right

What if it’s wrong?

Like every right turns into a wrong

Like every song turns into a melody

Like an angel singing beautifuly

Like a greenless pea on the streets

sitting next to a tree that's fruitful

I wish Laughter will become truthful

Like the world for what is it today

That we take ourselves serious

My melody in my words

Must have purpose

Many languages I speak

But Laughter is worthless

 

I must say that every word I profess

Is going insane  

full of blood bursting through the core of the Earth's vain

Laughter is what releases me from the medal chain

All we need to do is Laugh

I wish I knew that

Let me chuckle again

Before I start to relapse
