How Many Times

How many times have you,
hide behind a smile,
your broken heart.
How many times,
have you laugh,
laugh so hard that you actually cried.
How many times you have heard
friends are whispering to each other
"oh my god not again"
You have cry and have laughed,
but never like this
not this loud,and you wish to stop,
but your heart wants more,
so you just laugh.

I've done that very thing: cried until I laughed. Nicely done. Jack
