"Sticks and Stones,
May break my bones.
But words will never hurt me."
How can this be?
If I break a bone,
It will heal.
But if someone breaks my feelings,
Then I'm scarred.
Words hurt,
They go to the place under your skin shirt.
You may act like you don't care,
But you're heart will tear.
I just want you to be prepared,
You're going to be repaired.
Just not all at once.

She called me a *****,
But I've only been with four?
She called me skanky,
She seems cranky.
Her words,
Fly away like birds.
Some would curse,
But I've been called worse.

Once she used to care,
Used to brush her hair.
She can hear the chatter,
That she used to matter.
And now,
She takes her last bow.
She will never grow,
This is her last show.
She hangs the rope,
But she gains hope.
She will not give Them the satisfaction,
She will take action.
She will hold on to the knife,
Called Life.

One year ago this month.
I fell off a cliff.
For the first time falling,
I thought I was flying.

In February I hit the ground.
My emotions splattered all around.
I felt weak and worthless.
I’d never felt more alone.

In March, I moved on.
I got up, and I pushed myself.
Away from him, away from the past,
And away from myself.

April brought rain.
I always remember rain.
Getting washed away.
In that April rain.

May brought beauty.
And with beauty came my camera.
I still have pictures of that first day,
In the sunshine of May.

June was too much like a puzzle.
No school, floating with nothing to do,
But pick up the pieces,
And start over.

July brought me back.
I finally found myself in those corridors,
Pushing myself through fears upon fears.
I stopped hiding in July.

August brought hope.
For a new day, a new me.
With support from my friends,
I pushed and tried to win.

September brought a new age.
It shouldn’t have changed me but it did.
I’m still the youngest of all of us.
Why shouldn’t I feel like a kid?

October brought me only sadness,
Missing my friends from July.
All their birthdays were there in the autumn madness.
Why’d I have to say goodbye?

November was a month of silence.
A break from the stress of my life.
But even though it was silent,
I wouldn’t have ever gone back for more.

December has brought a new beginning.
Confidence, and strength through myself.
I’m now saying goodbye and I’m happy,
That 2017 is now gone.

There she lay her head,
Body full of lead.
He looks on with admiration,
His beautiful creation.
Though she lay still,
He fulfilled his will.
He did not choose,
Body full of *****.
No one will ever know,
Because it will never show.
