Healing Laughter

there's something in your laughter,
that echoes through my soul,
the comfort of a healing hand lifting burdens new and old,
they say that laughter is medicine,
when the heart is sick and aching,
when our hurts seem to be beyond our control, overwhelming or truly painstaking,
we see past our brokenness for a moment, and laugh at the small humors of life,
this is the point where restoration begins, brand new eyes with brand new sight,
saving ourselves without even knowing, this laughter causes to be,
for why would god make such a beautiful sound,
he sees the healings we cannot see.
