Running with Scissors

Running with Scissors

I think sometimes
We have to learn
The hard way
Running with scissors
Simply because
You know
You aren't 
Supposed to
Its easy to get caught
Its easy to doing the things
We know we aren't supposed to
Sometimes the thrill
Of crossing the line
Knowing that
We are getting away
When we think
We have everyone fooled
Ultimately
All it takes
Is that one time
Too many
Before life
Has a way
Of smacking you
Its always fun and games
Until someone
Pokes an eye out
