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!

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.
