Laughs Last

I have heard he who laughs last

in the past

or has the last laugh

or something like that

but not

he who laughs, lasts

I enjoy a good laugh

it often bursts forth

of its own accord

out of control

used to call them laugh attacks

and yet they get me through so much

so many ridiculous things happen

you have to be able to laugh

let it out

I would rather laugh than cry

would rather live than die

laughter causes joy

oh boy

I love to laugh

and how

I hate to cry

boo hoo

how about you

next time something is out of control

and you don't know what to do

just laugh

laugh out loud

laugh til you cry

laugh so hard you can't stand anymore

try this out....explore

hope this works for you too...

laughter is a gift

to be able to see the funny side of everything

even catastrophe

you need to find something to make you laugh

you can laugh at me for writing this

that would give me pure bliss

Good poem, I can relate, sometimes when I am having problems instead of being depressed I have laughing attacks, it's something that just happens, I don't even think about it, it's just something that I naturally do, I have no idea why. But yeah good points in this poem-as they always say laughter is the best medicane.
