Sticks and Stones
May break my bones.
But your words will always hurt more.
They slit my wrists,
They tear at my insides,
They bruise my heart and soul.
Damaging me forever.
Words change my thought process,
My view upon myself.
Your words make me hate myself,
Everyday more than the last.
When you drop a glass, it will never go back to the way it was before.
I’m not a puzzel;
I can’t be in a hundred pieces and put back together the way I once was.
Sticks and Stones will always be better than the words
I throw at myself.

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

Sticks and stones
may break my bones
but words are
merely the smallest element of language capable of containing meaning and isolation and as such could never directly produce the four thousand Newtons of force per square centimeter required to break bones.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me?
Wrong.
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but they will heal over time. Words will always hurt me.. leaving emotionally scaring wounds in my body that will last a lifetime.

"You piece of sh*t"
"You always F*ck up"
"Deal with it"
"What have you ever done for me"
I was only 11, they made me feel sad. The bruises and welts I had. I was nothing to them.
"Ugly"
"Troll"
"Giant"
"Hows the weather up there?"
"I need a ladder just to look at that face"
I was only 12, they made me feel worse. The names they called me. I wasn't perfect. I was ugly to them.
"Run faster"
"You can't fit in that size"
"Better lucky next time"
"Look at your fat"
I was only 13, they were taking a test. The meals I skiped. I was sick to my stomach. I was fat to them.
"Worthless"
"It's your own fault"
"You're crazy"
"Why do you do this to yourself?"
I was only 14, they said they were trying to help. The words I carved. I was sick of it all. I was insane to them.
"Everything will be okay"
"You're amazing"
"If you feel like letting go, hold on tight"
I was only 15, they said I found a good friend. The nights I spent. I loved him. I was beautiful to him.
"Stop crying"
"You have to move on"
"You can't keep blaming yourself"
"It's not your fault"
I was only 16. They said he was too young. The suffering I have. I had lost it all.

Stay close to me,
Count one, two and three.
Up in through your sleeves,
Bursting through the seams,
Open your eyes and see - You'll see.

Eyes open wide, blinded by the sun now.
Orange and white, dark red, green and yellow.
Rainbow colours - Do not hide, see the view.
Step aside, go through.

Sticks and stones are hard on bones
Aimed with angry art
Words can sting like anything
But silence breaks the heart.

Remember that rhyme we got told in elementary school?
About sticks and stones?
Well..
As if broken bones hurt more than the names we got called, and we got called them all...
This led us to believe that no-one would ever fall in love with us,
But...
We need to believe that
THEY WERE WRONG.
THEY WERE WRON Ugly.

sticks and stones can break this country girl
words don't even phase me
the people
the memories
this place,
these hills
they've been tractor plowed into my heart
i don't know where to start...
i love it here
i love the beauty
sheer perfection
i love it here
in this little town
i love the tattoos we've left here
i love this place,
it's my heart
my home
my life.
i love this little town where i grew up.
i don't ever want to leave.

I hate that saying.
'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.'
Maybe it looks like it, but it isn't that way.
Broken bones heal.
Names scar people.
You may think its okay, to joke around, call someone a wh*re.
But. It's. Not.
Nothing can justify calling someone anything.
As humans, we judge ourselves enough. We don't need someone else doing it for us.
'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.'
A simple name can start so much more than a broken bone.
Cutting.
Rehab.
Addiction.
Deppression.
As if these are all things that some doctors can cut away.
Don't even say words don't hurt. Because, when it comes done to it, words kill.
