‘Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” was the biggest bullshit I’ve ever heard,

Because those sticks and stones may break my bones but those bruises will heal, the black marks will fade and my body may rise from the dead again.

Words leave stains that are hard to kill, though I may wash my mind, soak my thoughts in bleach,

Those words keep me drowning, just completely anchored to my soul, now all I do is surround myself with these words and party to them beat me down

Because some words may have no impact but they lay heavily in the subconscious of my heart, where I can no longer scrap those feelings away ,

So fuck your sticks and stones and keep those words to yourself
