Written by Jacob Ibrag
The little girl looked at her father
and asked him why she bled after collecting
a fresh cut from a sliver of paper. ‘Some people
like to think that it’s to remind us that our hearts
are still beating. I think it’s to remind us that
we can heal and become whole again.’

I loved your poem. It was so beautiful. It sounds like the sort of conversation I’d have with my daughter. She’d always asking why and difficult questions.
