What We Live By

author
Daniel OConnor

Even in pools of our own blood,

we smile and laugh.

For it is easier to hide cuts and scars,

then to tell your story of pain and sorrow.

We hide behind our razors and knives,

with long sleeves and cover up stories.

Because this is what we have come to live by.
