Time takes all. In the downward slide of life entropy is the winner and laughter\'s echoes grow dimmer with time. Good write Thomas.

When the Laughter Dies
Bobby O said:

Wow! It’s literal and metaphoric all at once. “I think of our laughter …,and smile thru the pain for a second or TWO
And the ending line - motherfucker hitting that nail—speaks strongly to all about the futility of trying to live in the past. And Boss, there were a dozen more examples worthy of detailed introspection.
You sir, continue to be a monster!

Thoughts of laughter only momentary relief?
That\'s bad news, and if real at this moment needs.......
Vivid depiction of severe depression, Thomas.

I can see it in her dead eyes, wow dark emotional and really heavy on a heart, beautifully crafted dear Thomas, I can only hope this is fiction. Truly sad to lose anyone you love this way be it friend or family. 🌹

Never say never - she may (emphasis on the \'may\') return....the treatment of mental illness, while it still has a hell of a way too go, has also improved considerably over the years.... in all possibility also it needs more resources..
A brief but also important picture you paint there Thomas.

Finally you came to your senses, lol amazing there is such an appreciation of moving up in age when we get to appreciate the simple things of life, when we are young we just seem to overlook the simple pleasures, we call it the rat race in London, fortunately by the age of 28 I left it all to go live in the beauty of the countryside, it\'s also a mind decision because I chose to go see all the beauty, and I\'ve never looked back. Now I shall shut up! LoL wonderful dear Thomas as you always do you mezmerize me and get my mind churning 🌹 thank you, you certainly are a rich man, in turn your reader feels the same.

Time shaves slices off me continually as I age, and I would hope (perhaps for others to judge) the resultant sculpture becomes finer for that….I like to think so anyway.
I can relate to your description of that process.
