The boy you punched for liking a boy
has punched himself
a thousand more.
The girl you slapped for kissing a girl
stains her legs with
cigarette burns.
Our words can cut sharper than a knife
and the things we do
could end a life.
So before you see blood in your hands
always try to
understand --
That the worlds full of colors and hues
and it's easier to just
accept the truth.
