I Was Laughing.

I was laughing,
And then I thought of you.

I was laughing,
And then my arms longed for your embrace.

I was laughing,
And then I wished your face was pressed to me.

I was laughing,
And then I wished your hips were next to mine.

I was laughing,
And then I longed for your vivacious lips.

I was laughing,
And suddenly I became serious.


I was laughing,
And then my face fell,
Because you were away,
Swiftly wounding me with indifference.
