"Unfunny"
Funny how you were right all along
Funny because aren't you always?
Funny the way the air still feels cold sometimes
Funny, even in the middle of summer
Funny how you pull your jacket closer
Funny that you remember all the details
Funny that only now you think of the long walk home
Funny the way you wake up some nights, and you still check to make sure that you're all there
Funny how you've taken such big steps, and made such progress
Funny that it's so easy to set you back
Funny, sometimes, what it takes to push you over the edge
Funny still what can bring you back
Funny that you hear music in everything
Funny that sometimes you think you're deaf
Funny that you seem to dislike so much
Funny that you love, truly love, so much more
Funny that he reminds you of him, and he reminds you of him
Funny how you can't get the fuck over it
Funny that it could be so much worse
Funny how even that knowledge doesn't take away the pain
Funny how it feels like it's been so long
Funny, only seven years
Funny how quickly you can hurt a person, consequently ruin them
Funny how long it takes for them to get better
Funny sometimes they never do
Funny how strongly you wanted to be believed
Funny then, how strongly you were denied
Funny the way everything felt, the way it tasted, the way it smelled
Funny that nothing was ever the same
Funny, not even the way they said you name
Funny how scared they think you are
Funny how scared they'll never know you were… are… were
Funny the way your world spun
Funny that it was so vivid, nonetheless
Funny to imagine that something so sacred, so cherished, so beautiful, can actually be taken away from you
Funny that, for a moment, you actually thought it had been
Funny now, how the days just kept rolling by
Funny, when you finally found your voice
Funny that you should have been so scared of something that was clearly much more afraid of you
Funny, watching the sun set, how it's so literal and now proverbial
Funny how you're finally finishing the chapter
Funny, the close of the book
Funny how it isn't funny, not even a little
Funny, not at all
