We All Seem To Bleed



Hello to the shapeless
With no barriers in life
And Hello to the squares
That think in straight lines
Hello to the frowns
That flower in the air
Hello to the people
That like to stop and stare
And hello to the hearing
And the deaf
.- -. -.. / - .... . / -... .-.. .. -. -..
(and the blind)
But most of all
Hello to the people
That are simply kind
No matter what you look like
No matter if you can see
Or walk or speak or talk
Because we all have blood and bleed
Good people don't put shame
On the humans that are different
Good people see the pain
They understand and they listen
