Life gets painful
There is more hurt
Than joy
More rage
Then any page can handle
I forget myself
Lose precious moments
Stew in the sorrow
It takes hours or days
To remember
I am a creature of love
And all that pain
Stems from frustration
All that suffering sees the suffering of others
I need a joke,
I need a laugh
Before I split myself in half
My mood is an infection
A virus that spreads through my being
Humor is the antibiotic
To fight off my depression
