Laughter in the Dark



Those enchanting smiles
Drowned me in the fire.
For I have always been so tired
With your words so nice.
Your actions so indulging,
Penetrating myself pleasurably,
Making every inch of my body seems powerless.
Every time, you've been divergent,
Demanding my senses into death.
Those sweet grin I see in your eyes,
Manifests the whole of your being, so incredibly fine!
But the end of those laughter arrived,
Placed myself in the darkness of the night
Leaving my eyes misty, and my mind...
Blocked and empty.
