Poem 1418

the broken aren’t that fragile

and a moment cannot stay

what's the difference tween a smile

and a frown from far away?

the lines they leave behind

and the memories they made

both leaving similar thin lines

proudly displayed upon your face

marking the happy with the sad

with no real way to discern

the kind of life you had

or the lessons that were learned

be gentle with the souls

standing next to you today

they may be covering up the holes

from something someone had to say

life is for the living

only one way to escape

do your best at giving

not only heros wear a cape
