Everything is a joke, but nothing is funny.
It is not funny that you yell, kick, hurt, love.
It is not funny that you don’t grow, no joy.
It is not funny that I am scared, not to you, but to the ones that saw you grow and not flourish.
I am scared, every breath is less life, every moment is a stronger pounding, heavier, and will never come back.
I am scared to yell, kick, hurt, love.
I am scared and nothing gives me strength.
Everything is funny, but nothing is a joke.
My dear friends, this is the second poem I publish. Enjoy!
