FuNNy not funny - i Forgot to Laugh

You scoff at me from afar
As I zoom past you like a car
You are my shooting star
I’m bearing this ugly scar…

I have been laughing all night,
Cracking up jokes that don’t mean a thing
I have been being silly with might,
Packing up my giggles for later and everything

My belly is feeling like jelly,
Watching the naughty Telly
I’m sorrowful, yet sheltered comfortably
I’m awfully sorry I let you down frankly…

I’m extremely gleeful
Yet, emotionally unstable
I feel oh so beautiful 
Yet, I get why I feel…unable…
To…breathe…
just leave. 
must grieve. 
At ease, at ease, at ease, so please
Don’t be a tease and shoot the breeze

To be honest, I want to die happy with you tonight benevolently 
I want to tranquilize myself with your tranquility weapons
To be frank, you’ll thank me later when we make love enjoyably 
Oh, you son of a gun, haven’t you had the fun time of your life, but I’m having fun tons

I’m chaotically screaming silently
As you sing joyously…just wonderful!
I’m practically dying here like a wilted tree
As you sing gleefully…how delightful…

You crack me up though
So who gives a hell what you say to me nowadays
You back me up, you know,
Although it rings a bell that you sing precious praise
To the Lord of
Accord and love
I’m in the clouds…
I’m proud I’m not in the shrouds
Cultures of vultures surround me now
Somehow, I’ll take a vivacious vow
That I will enliven you when you die in my arms
I will not do you harm and gracefully give you cheery charms
That mean a lot to me…
Just let me be happy,
Laughing foolishly forevermore 
It’s better than this sorrow that apparently you adore

Funny…
I forgot to laugh
Punny —
On your behalf,
It’s ironic
That you love me so
It’s so pathetic
You now see me glow?

I’m a mere shadow,
Once a reflection of the sun
Reap what you sow
So I can show everyone that you’re a shady, sketchy son of a devilish, frivolous fun…
