There's something about the word Laughter
I always seem to have a smile when I hear that word
It kinda reminds me of Happily Ever After
The kind of ending that I will never get. But I can pretend, right?
I've read Cinderella as a Child
I've dreamed that one day I would find Prince Charming
It was just an imagntion that ran Wild
I found no Prince Charming, but a Marine.
At the age of Sixteen
I completely fell in love
I didn't mind that he is a Marine
I thought it was kinda cool that he was.
But the word Laughter
I hear it and think of him
But, yet, all the pain he left After
My heart has never healed from that, probably never again
Laughter is all I've got
Happily Ever After, Cinderella is a fairy-tale, never forgot
Child and their dreams
Wild, running faster than it seemed
Sixteen, the age I was when I fell for my
Marine, the wonderful kind of guy
But what is Laughter to you?
