POEM STARTER

Sticks And Stones

“Sticks and stones may break my bones,

But words will never hurt me.”


Huh.


Well,


Sticks and stones have never broken my bones


But words, how they have hurt me


They cut deep into my heart

Sharper than any knife


But more hurtful still

Are words that hide

They stay on the top of your tounge

But I can see them

In your eyes they scream at me


And let me tell you


That hurts





More than sticks ever have
