stand up #1

Thu, 08/15/2019 - 09:38 -- Luvenia

I couldn't even think about getting up here to crack a joke \

and if I did my thoughts and words would only choke 

But when i'm alone those jokes are like the water and sun exfoliating the flowers of my soul 

someone once told me when I laughed it sounded like whales dying 

I wish I had the courage to tell him, I don't apologize for my soul crying

And if he wasn't gonna wipe it's tears.. he should probably close his ears

because my call wasn't meant for him 

and to all the ones who only see figure

then it wasnt meant for them either.

When I speak I wish to make narrow minds wider

or by all means just see you when you're wild

because although my outs are laughing 

I would love to feel my inners smile
