How does it go the rhyme about sticks and stones about how words will never hurt me. why is it so hard to see that words hurt worse than those bruised bloody broken bones,that words are like hot knives that cause wounds that will never heal completely so our scarred hearts manifest barbed wire fences to protect our treasured dying innocence from those who only show there dark frightening faces in our nightmares the stars fall with the sorrow for those who have felt like there unique tendencies made them beautiful but of course who could care when we can't even speak of the darkness that haunts us consuming us all slowly because its not the way society has conditioned our bruised hearts to deal with the pain of the past monsters with knives for teeth and poisoned tipped arrows for claws.yet no one seems to comprehend that living in a poisoned environment starts to poison you. now the bullying escalates to cold keyboards and computer screens, people express that it is so easy to just walk away from the pain that you wont think there is anything wrong with you that you wont feel like you have been stranded in the middle of a dark, unforgiving ,and frigid galaxy.Alone we stand without a safe fate or perfect destiny and though we inspire those around us we still can't see the beauty in ourselves as even inner beauty plays a cruel game of hide and seek trying to survive our own vengeful prying eyes and we are not the only ones who reel this way. There are others who hide meekly in dark corners desperately trying to find something to keep them sane and without trust because trust could bring pain. Our minds are a battlefield with constant confrontation as both sides fight to survive but as we grow older the battle will start to die as other habits start to fade then we will look in the mirror and whisper "We made it. They were wrong" the lies they used to twist into our nooses no longer hold any weight we are finally free and through it we found our own kind of beauty.
