Have You Ever?

Have you ever laughed so hard one day, that you cried?
And the next day, you almost died?
Have you ever needed something so bad, you think about it all the time?
And when you think about it, it is like a crime?
To hold your emotions in, and put on a mask.
To hide what you really feel, and it puts you offtask.

I have laughed one day, and I cried.
And the next day, I almost died.
I have needed something so bad, and I thought about it all the time.
And when I thought about it, it was like a crime.
And I held my emotions in, and put on a mask.
And I hid what I really felt, and it put me offtask.

It is nice to laugh so hard, that you cry.
But the next day, don't almost die.
And to need something so bad is good, but don't think of it all the time.
And if you do think about it, let it not be like a crime.
Don't hold your emotions in, don't put on that mask.
Don't hide what you really feel, don't fall offtask.

Interesting repetition. A good poetic meter you have. Nice job.
