"Sticks And Stones..."
  by DOMINICANPOET


Sticks and stones may break my bones...
But words will never hurt me...I never truly understood...
This child nursery rhyme..Until i sat and evaluated the words...
Inside of my own mind...
As People judge other people and call them names...
Do you truly not think the person already knows...
Calling someone Overweight...Fat...
Do you think that hits a sore spot...
Not necessarily Because I'm sure they already know...
Calling someone underweight...A skeleton...
Do you think that bruised their heart...
Not completely...They walk in there own shoes...
Every day...Look in the mirror on many occasions...
No one can tell me something I haven't already noticed...
Already beat myself up about..
Calling someone who wears glasses..Four-eyes...Or Nerd...
Dont you think...they already know that they have four eyes...
So truthfully all these names...And words intended to be hurtful..
Only make me laugh...Many call me a Bitch...
Well thats something I already Know...I dont take no shit...
Lots of girls..Call me a Hoe..
Yes I'm Cute But really hun..My mother taught me to say NO...
As i look on This poetry site i call my home..
Alot of poems have been directed my way..
Whether they are good or bad...They all have something to say...
So all the hurtful words you intend to murder me with...
Remember...I've said worse things to myself...
Cause No one can Hurt me....LIKE ME...


**Just something...That jumped into my mind...No Rhyme Scheme.... Just off the head...ENJOY****
