Laughter Ever After

You don't deserve this, don't ever think that you do.
You deserve to smile and laugh and make others laugh too.
Don't you dare use that smile as a lying excuse
To hide away what you think means nothing to anyone but you.

Your life is no longer here, it's a part of a bigger one now.
I wished to be a part of you, a part of your life before it was done.
Let me, please; please, let me delve
Into a place that you shouldn't have shelved.

Leave your sadness, leave it all behind.
There's a world waiting for you. I hope you will find
That crying we come and crying we leave
But in dying, a part of you will find reprieve.
For the world remembers so well no famous aspirer,
But he who was Mrs. Doubtfire.

The Mighty Storm and A Weak Heart

The thundering grew harsher while the land gave way.

Soil cracked open and for death made way.

The might of the clouds, destruction was hell-bent.

The weakest of hearts were but heaven sent.

Turmoil took over and darkness swallowed the land,

Weak heats searched for shelter in otherwise barren sand.

Struck not just by lightening but the indifference they showed

To the sun. And the warmth of the days they ignored.

The weaker they grew the stronger was the storm.

For these hearts saw no light or even hope of a day that’s warm.

But that’s what happens when you keep your heart in the dark too long.

It succumbs to its weakness and thinks it can never be strong.

Teach your heart to believe that there’s sunshine after the rain

And that with every storm that comes its way, there’s joy after the pain.
