He Laughed and Laughed

He laughed and laughed

But no one laughed with him

He was crazy you see

He pulled the chain

But the lights didn't come on

In the dark closets of his mind

He was forever in darkness

A tear rolled down his face

A silent scream from his soul

All hope and dreams were gone

He's surrounded by light now

At peace

From a tormented life of despair

Sometimes I wonder if crazy people have more peace, by ignoriing the things that made them that way (besides chemical imbalance)

Well expressed and well written Kate!

Good job!!
