Sticks And Stones

This poem is about something which happened today in one of my lessons. It's not about friendship, so think of it as a one off :)

~ ~ ~ ~

Try and picture my emotions inside,

Thinking truths when really they're lies.

Think of the self esteem you are crushing,

With all of these insults you are pushing.

Try and picture how you would feel,

When your flaws suddenly become real.

Because a girl went and said some remark,

Suddenly leaving me and my fears stark.

Try and picture inside I'm a mess,

Yet here you are messing with my head.

Sometimes words hurt more than sticks and stones,

Leaving you broken,

destroyed,

alone.
