Inevitable

I'm sitting on my bed, and I'm looking at comedy
Internally I'm sad
But I've been using comedy so why now use it now?
I started laughing, affected by the visual
But even though I'm laughing...
There's a sadness inside of me

Then, I click on another video
The young male is crying
Well, he has tears in his eyes
The caption is relatable
Hilarious the more I rewatch it
And the more I rewatch it, the more it evokes  the sadness in me to spill along with it, the tears
And I almost do
But I don't
I didn't want to be sad again
Not right now
But it won't last

After all

There's always the quietness or the darkness of early morning to compel the tears and the sadness I desperately tried to postpone and ignore
