LAUGHTER

Warm light
Bursting in through every pore
Lips spasming
In pure pleasurable delight
Eyes molding
Into halfmoon slits
Overwhelming stress
Released by sublime euphoria
Intoxication
Caused by heartfelt glee
Enjoyed momentary ignorance to proper composure
Sweet stimulation
Of all five senses
God given music to starving ears
Uninhibited
Comforter of a stranger's fears
Breaking down
All the built up defenses
Enter the state of childlike sobriety
Pure happiness
Comes in this variety
