Sticks and Stones
Sticks and Stones may break my Bones but words will never hurt me.
Ask Someone on the receiving end if this is true, because it is not. Broken bones will heal, but the words said will stick forever is more how it should go.
You can say anything that you wish but ...
You don’t know what its like to be me
What my past was like
What got me to this point in my life
To feel lost
To feel hurt
To be on the edge of being broken ...
This is middle school, maybe not for me but some kid out there knows what I’m talking about.
Kids will be kids they say...
Maybe you should raise your kids better
Treat others how you wish to be treated others say...
Maybe if everything they did to others happened to them to, maybe it would stop
Unless you have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all...
That won’t happen without duct tape, everyone knows that.
Something made me this way. Go ahead and judge me if you would like. See how I react. If you know my name thats a start, but if you don’t even know that, why should I care what you think about me. If people judge me before meeting me I don’t want to be around them, could care less about what they said. This is an attitude that takes time to develop, but it is one of the best strategies in life to know, because in the end, it will make you stronger.
Time heals all wounds... isn't always true
