The Repeated Laughter Poem by Dani Miller

Uncontrolable laughing flows
Out of my lips every single night.
I don't know why but chances are
I have gone insane.
You know that you are the cause of this,
You just make me too happy.
Yesterday for the first time I actually
Thought 'Right now is so perfect...'
And then I started laughing, its true after all.
Its taken a while to get here...
And I have almost given up a few tiems.
But That little voice in my head told me
That I might as well do it,
Considering as to how I have nothing to lose.
Literally.

And I am so glad I listened,
And did not ignore it.
Because if I hadn't I would still be
Moping around saying how un-fair this is.
But thankfully that voice and yourself
Saved me from all of that.
Just the thought of this one moment
Made me laugh and slaughter the darkness,
With your help of course.
But hey, guess what?
If you are happy then my life has purpose.
Or that day does at least.

The other day a person actually
Stopped and put down what they were doing,
And stared at me because I was all alone...
A wide smile spread on my feautures,
And a silent laugh filling the air around me.
I hope I didn't scare them,
Oh well who cares right?
As long as you and I are happy people can laugh
Until their tragic death for all I care.
All I could do was
Go home, lay in my bed,
Laugh myself to sleep,
Then wake up and repeat the day before.
