Words that pierce skin
Burn down deep in fresh wounds;
Words that were meant just in jest,
Cut something from within apart.
These wishes that need to be asked
Just fall upon deaf ears, please listen to those pleas.
Rhymes once told as a child
Lose their meaning throughout the years.
Those rocks that broke the brittle bone
Did nothing to soothe the hurting words.
Help the light shine towards knowledge
And help understanding come from the words.
Why must words be so cruel?
Why must people hurt?
Questions swim to and fro
Answers are never found.
Wishes that still need to be said,
Fall upon those deafening ears.
Could the language of the hands,
Help understanding fall to knowledge?
Never engage in matters of the heart
Feelings of embarrassment;
Feelings of self-loathing,
Only end up in heartache.

Description:
Sticks and stones may break my bones.....
...But words will never hurt me.
Remember this little rhyme as a kid? Does it still apply ten, twenty, thirty years later? - Date: 12/13/2008

- I remember the little rhyme as a kid...I don't even think it applied then. ^^;; Words does hurt they can truly have a huge impact on someone or at least I think so. This is amazing. Can really feel the emotion and everything.
