Sticks And Stones Poem by Lauren Joy

Sticks And Stones



We tell ourselves
We smell ourselves
Searching for the truth
We analyse our peers
We examine our fears
Finding them foul and uncouth
We make a wish
We destroy a wish
Losing our own sanity
We try to fake it
We try to break it
Ruining also our certainty
We try hard
We fall hard
Breaking all our bones
We hear voices
We make choices
Broken by more than sticks and stones
