I Laugh Therefore I Am Poetry
What am I going to do
if my love has gone away
Who will let me cry silly
until we laugh together
because it is ridiculous
that we’d not see
how perfect our
comedy of errors is.
I laugh
therefore I am, and
we were hysterically happy
because we were funny
when we remembered how
we caught each other in a fall
Don’t be gone
Be my joy
Be my love
Don’t be dead:
I command it, because
there is one joke
I haven’t yet told you
What am I going to do
if my love has gone away
without laughing
