SIMPLE

They called us the simple ones.

We smiled and dumbly grinned through

Their hard exteriors as if they were

Not there for, for them to be there,

Our soft skin would be cut to pieces.

So they dug in harder and harder bruising

Themselves against the walls of their own

Making. One or two did smile.

But then broke down and cried.
