Wipe Away that Smile

Laughter and tears go hand in hand

Carrying on like love struck teenagers

thier lust overwhelming

riding over you in waves

thier intensity so fleeting

both a fickle misstress make

they leave for a passerby

you hardly seem to care

yet somehow both are contaigous

with your friends, and family you share

how inappropriate they can seem

you'll hear laughter as you trip

and when the big joke goes over right

the tears can tell it all

some hoard thier money

while others watch thier time

but if they share thier tears and laughter

we might just all be fine
