Poem
To this day I still look back
Back to the days of terror and 
dread
I was afraid of what the days 
had to hold
Always getting on the bus and 
feeling like I had
Died and gone to an eternal 
hell
Fag loser and queer those were 
some of the dozens of names 
they called me
They felt like bitter barbs 
piercing my heart and soul
People keep saying sticks and 
stones my brake my bones but 
words will never hurt me
But that is an utter lie
Lacerated flesh and broken 
bones can heal in time
But words and names can 
crush someones heart and soul 
Changing who they are and 
what they will become
Thats happened to thousands 
of children just like me
And they thought they knew 
me
They thought that they could 
just read me like an open book
Those days those eternal days
And those days turned to 
weeks to months to years
Walking through the halls with 
all eyes looking down at me
I could feel them I could feel 
the accursed eyes
Their eyes bored into my soul 
ripping it out through the
Dead heart in my chest
Recess came but going outside 
meant certain death
getting pushed into the dirt and 
kicked in the gut
I grew up fearing the outside 
and the sun
It was as if the sun was a black 
hole sucking all life into its void 
and emptiness
Never going outside out of fear 
of all of the monsters and 
beasts 
armed with an arsenal of pain 
and destruction
That inhabit the outside world
So I stay inside my locked 
room cutting all of those my 
fears away
Upon my upper arm the blood 
drips with the fear of others
But those were not the deepest 
cuts
Those were the cuts of the 
emotions that were the deepest
For years that's how life was
Until the day I made a friend
A friend that would never give 
up on me
That wouldnt let me fall
He brought me from the 
darkest place
And picked me up from the 
ground
And to this day I shall never 
forget
What that friend has done for 
me
Through the time that he 
helped me through
He taught me to love myself for 
who I am
He taught me to ignore all the 
words
And all the names
Of all of the people who have 
the audacity
To destroy and pick on 
someone who is different
And to this day his lessons still 
push
And still keep me going
To love me for me
And to know that they were all 
wrong
So listen and take heed 
To the words that I have been 
saying
Love you for you
And dont fear the power of 
man
Dont let them change you from 
who you are
Stay true to yourself and the 
power that you hold
And maybe in the days to come 
You can say with strength and 
pride
"To this day I love me for me"
