Laughter

Twisted and haunting,
Light and feathery,
Loving and warring,

Good or bad,
I will fight for your laugh.
So beautiful,

Even when aimed at a helpless soul.

So I'll fall,
So I'll dance,
So I'll make myself dumb,

Just to hear that music.

Just for it to play once.

The sound of angels bells,
Could never compare.
Let it slip around,
Beauty and wonder.

Then it's aimed at my hopeless soul,
Lost in your wonder,
I don't notice the black hole opening within my chest,
Until its to late.

Im split in two,

Just because your wonder filled laugh.
Bewitched I was,
Smitten to be,
Until fate decided my destiny.

So now I'm broken,
And from more than one.
I know it's true now,
Even though I can still see what could have been.

It hurts,
Seeing things leave.
But hey,
The best medicine,

You have to know it...

Just laugh.
