The Laugh
Your laugh;
Like a record player
Round and round and round
My head spins
At the way that when you mess up a word
You laugh
Again and again and again
And
At the way you look in that blue shirt
That matches those eyes
And the ocean too
I could watch the waves all day with you
And watch those eyes watch the waves
Watch
The way the salty waves kiss the shore
And come back
Every time.
I’m sure that you could brighten anyone’s day
With that smile
So bright like the stars
I wish on shooting stars as bright as
That smile
That one-day Fate will bring us together
So I can hear that laugh again
So I can watch those eyes watch
So I can see that smile brighten
My heart
Hurts –
So curse fate
And curse that laugh
And curse those eyes
And curse that smile
For it hurts too much
To see those stars slip away
To watch those waves wander off
To hear that record scratch –
Scratch that
I fall –
For Fate’s tortured games
And for
Your smile
And for
Your eyes
And for
Your laugh.
