To Hear Your Laughter Poem by Adrienne Gagne

To Hear Your Laughter

Rating: 3.5


Just to hear your laughter,
I would throw myself off the highest cliff
on the western coast
And as the waves carried my broken body away
I would turn my head back in your direction

Because after everything we have been through,
The pain
The tears
The sacrifices
The goodbyes
I need to know that you will always be laughing

Right before the ocean pulls me below the surface for good
The wind catches the faint sound of your voice
You are laughing so hard
I can practically picture the tears of joy
streaming down your face.

Darkness follows
and there is nothing left but a broken body filled with memories
Finally, amidst the saltwater and seaweed
You are free,
and so am I.

You create such definitive images in your writes...I could almost hear the laughter echoing just beyond the cliffs. PEACE
