Laughter

I watch the darkness

Swirl and dance.

My mind wanders,

My heart begins to prance.

My imagination sees

A hallway full or mirrors

As I begin to cry

About my many fears.

What if school starts bad?

What if I cry in class?

What if I grow sad

As his face reflects off of the glass?

And as I look through my list,

The tears streaming down,

I freeze in mid-sob,

Hearing a single sound!

It must've been the angels,

Oh wow! It couldn't be!

Is he really laughing?

Laughing just for me?
