the stifled sound rumbling on the tip of my tongue eager to come out. It roars with happiness and excitement from what it seems. But behind that exotic laugh is a soul. The laugh hides the soul keeping it hidden from outsiders. The laugh keeps a delightful smile on someones face. Everyone wants to feel happy..even if it is for a split second. That laugh takes your mind away from the dreadful thoughts of suicide or the painful outlook of what is called you life. The laugh takes away the pain as if were an antidepressant. But what happens when the laugh stops...that dreadful pain resumes to what is reality as it consumes your identity as a whole.

A Laugh
the stifled sound rumbling on the tip of my tongue eager to come out. It roars with happiness and excitement from what it seems. But behind that exotic laugh is a soul. The laugh hides the soul keeping it hidden from outsiders. The laugh keeps a delightful smile on someones face. Everyone wants to feel happy..even if it is for a split second. That laugh takes your mind away from the dreadful thoughts of suicide or the painful outlook of what is called you life. The laugh takes away the pain as if were an antidepressant. But what happens when the laugh stops...that dreadful pain resumes to what is reality as it consumes your identity as a whole.
