This is the time in the story
When someone is supposed to say
"What else could go wrong?"
And then a lightning strikes them from nowhere
And then, without a flinch
Everyone around them starts to laugh
And they laugh and they laugh
Until the sound becomes unbearable
And they laugh and they laugh
Until the air becomes unbreathable
And then they cry and they cry
Until their eyes dry out
And there's nothing left on earth except the deafening silence
Of nothing.
There's nothing left to do-
No more reasons to laugh
And no tears left to cry
And so they stare at each other
In silence.
Nobody understands how they ended up in this position
So they just stare at each other
In silence.
The times flies by
And they've grown old
With nothing.
All they have left is a short but brief memory
Of how it once was to be happy
And how it once was to be sad
And there's nothing more to that,
There will never be anything more than that.
