Just Another

no one is
just another person
they love
they hate
and they hurt

people always look
at the crashes
and the pain
and the heartbreak
and say
"It's just another person."

but it is not
just another person
they have
loved ones
family
and friends

each person
has a heart that beats
has a breath taken
each second

no one is
just another person
because they love
and hate
and hurt

    from stray branches and walking
    throughout the woods, balking
    at the idea
    of no path

    water rests on skin
