| Lost:
A Sense of Humour
Big, can't miss it. Known
to induce laughter and smiles. Could be
found in a group of easy going people. Has
been missing for a long time. If you find
it, please contact me. Offering a large
reward.
I can remember a time where
happiness is a part of who I am. A time
where I'm always smiling and laughing. A
time when I'm not this dark. I still smile,
I still laugh but it's not the same. I walk
in a room and force a smile or feign a laugh
so no one had to know how I really felt.
There are times where I would truly, uncontrollably
laugh but now those are far and in between.
I remember a time when laughter was a part
of my day, when I sat there smiling for
no reason at all just because happiness
is part of my day.
What happen to the laughter,
the joy, the happiness? I'm not really sure.
I suspect life happened. The universe decided
to play hacky sack with my life. I had two
choices, crawl in a little hole and hope
everything gets better or take what is given
and run with it. I choose the later and
somewhere down the road I dropped my good
spirited humour for hurtful sarcasm. Now
realizing the error of my ways, I attempt
to relocate this joy so that I could live
my life with the best of both worlds. Unfortunately,
it's hard to find this joy I once lost.
