"Some of us make it, But No one Deserved it. I'm silent, I'm screaming. Sticks and stones was The Rhyme that they taught us to fight off our monsters, to help numb the darkness. But what they forgot was is that you don't need to break my bones for you to break me. The voices won't stop, don't let me be alone. Please someone, I just want to go back home."
~The Rhyme by Scratch 21
