One Word
By Madeline Heuss
Love
A lifetime of happiness and hugs
Beauty
An image they never thought they would see
Hey
A simple way to light up their day
Slut
The first thing to make them cut
Everything you say
Could make or break someone’s day
They could finally be okay
Or slowly fade away
The scars inside don’t always heal
Because once something is broken, it will never look new
You have to control what you say and do
Because you never know what someone is going through
