Would You Laugh At Me

If I Sat Down, Tears Streaming Down My Half Dominican Half Puterican Face, Droplets Of Water Coming From My Brown Eyes Would You Laugh At Me? If I shaped the stars and the sun, With a #2 pencil full of led, Would you laugh at me? If I looked through a lens Of hope, To see the bright, ripe moon Glowing from a distance Would you laugh at me? If I try to mimic characters From an amine, With a smile of warm joy, Would you laugh at me? If I act like myself, To be your fragile friend You hold close. Would you laugh at me? If I work hard to Complete Projects Or videos to make you smile Would you laugh at me? If I had bruised myself Without knowing Would you laugh at me? If I embraced my half Dominican- half Puterican side of my life Would you laugh at me? If I fall... Through the swollen pit of life vs death Would you laugh at me? If I Replay my favorite songs, Humming the lyrics Would you laugh at me? If I stay... Or If I go... Would you laugh at me? Or have the courage to say… Hello.

Hello, Aoi. No, I would not laugh at you, at all. I would encourage you to be who you are, to enjoy your life as you wish to live it, and to let you share with me the tears from those big brown eyes. Best wishes to a fine poet!!!
