At night, while the others slept,
we kept walking the tightrope,
and yeah, some of us fell.

we grew up believing no one would ever fall in love with us, that we’d be lonely forever, that we’d never meet someone to make us feel like the sun was something they built for us in their tool shed. so broken heart strings bled the blues as we tried to empty ourselves so we would feel nothing.
don’t tell me that hurts less
than a broken bone.

If you don't see something
beautiful about yourself,
get a better mirror
look a little closer
stare a little longer
because there's something inside you
that made you keep trying
despite everyone who told you to quit.

I'm not the only kid who
grew up this way,
surrounded by people
who used to say
that rhyme about broken bones,
as if broken bones
hurt more than the names
we were called.

We grew up,
learning to cheer on the underdog
because we see ourselves in them.

You built a cast around your broken heart,
and you signed it yourself. You signed it,
"they were wrong."

And if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourself
And if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourselfGet a better mirror
And if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourselfLook a little closer
And if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourselfStare a little longer
Because there’s something inside you
That made you keep trying
Despite everyone who told you to quit

“So be a mirror reflecting yourself back, and remembering the times when you thought all this was too hard and you’d never make it through. Remember the times you could have pressed the quit- but you hit continue.”

He was a broken branch, grafted onto a different family tree. Adopted. Not because his parents opted for a different destiny.
He was 3 when he became a mixed drink of one part left alone, and 2 parts tragedy.
Started therapy in 8th grade. Had a personality made of tests and pills. Lived like the up hills were mountains, and the down hills were cliffs. 4/5th suicidal. A tidal wave of anti-depressants and an adolescence being called 'popper'. One part because of the pills, 99 parts because of the cruelty.
He tried to kill himself in grade 10 when a kid who could still go home to mom and dad had the audacity to tell him to 'get over it'. As if depression is something that can be remedied by any of the contents found in a first aide kit.
To this day he is a stick of TNT lit from both ends. Could describe to you in detail the way the sky bends and the moments before its fall.
And despite an army of friends who call him an inspiration, he remains a conversation piece between people who can't understand something being drug free has less to do with addiction and more to do with sanity.
To
This
Day.

All we can do is share some piece of ourselves, and hope that it's remembered. Hope that we meant something to someone.

People say that rhyme
About sticks and stones
As if broken bones
Hurt more than the names we got called
And we got called them all.
If a kid breaks in a school
And no one around chooses to hear
Do they make a sound?
We stem from a root planted in the belief
That we are not what we were called
We are graduating members from the class of F/ck Off We Made It
Not the faded echoes of voices crying out
"Names will never hurt me"
Of course
They did

❝despite your instinct to say “it’s alright, I’m okay” - be honest. say how you feel without fear or guilt, without remorse or complexity. be lucid in your explanation, be sterling in your oppose. if you think for one second no one knows what you’ve been going through; be accepting of the fact that you are wrong, that the long drawn and heavy breaths of despair have at times been felt by everyone - that pain is part of the human condition and that alone makes you a legion. ❞

i do my best impression of a surgeon going in, cutting purple hearts out of my own using my veins like thread, then have them sewn to our skin like medals, because when the bleeding stops and the dust settles, all we have are our wounds to wear like decorations on our chest
