Scars of Life

My dearest friend, The scars that life has engraved upon my soul, You could never be able to see For I, Carefully, have erased each one of them, with The broadest of my smiles! © Demetrios Trifiatis 12 January 2016

I have been enjoying your poetry this morning. Don't have time to comment on all your wonderful words, but this one especially is amazing and so true. People ask me why, with all life has dealt me, why am I smiling and so happy. Because I choose to be. The more you smile, the easier it becomes.
