Sticks and Stones
You speak to me of sticks and stones I recall you tossing me aside Who am I without my God? In stillness I fall Quiet screams tear out of my mouth Broken and afraid I cling to shadows Under the sun I sought my Father With joy I found him inside my shell Deep inside of me you are a light Water for my...

A rhino's eyesight is really myopic, Perhaps that's what makes him so misanthropic. His hearing and reflexes, though, are sublime, He can turn on a nickel and stop on a dime. The projection that grows On the end of his nose Is not really a horn, though, As one might suppose. And when he needs scratching, There's another small hitch, His legs are too short So...

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me", I would shout out loud with tear-streamed eyes and sniffles that would choke me. "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me", a saying I always stuck to when in an argument I find myself losing. sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will...

Flowers, Sticks and Stones
He gathered flowers, petals which felt like first rain, “She loves me; not” his heart in strain, Relentless plucks, his hope at test, Until the final petal indeed whispered, “yes”. While in the forest she roamed, mustering her tone, Carefully and with good measure picking up each stick and stone, Her purpose and dreams were clear, For in...

Sticks and Stones
Whispers soft as the wind, Eyes see, ears alert But no one hears Lips move, eyes bulge Fingers point, hearts beat Words cut sharp like a knife. Tears fall. Anger sprouts. Happiness fades. Every single face puts up a protective shield. Every face neutral. Every eye dry. Every mouth closed. But on the inside, Every heart’s warmth dies. Every pulse quickens. And every soul falls deeper...

We Sang Sticks and Stones Could Hurt Someone
We sang sticks and stones could hurt someone And words could never hurt us But from his words we’ve come undone We never thought he’d hurt us You gotta go and don’t be back You can’t take one more hack He’ll be rolling off your back Clear on out and be on track How many chances does he get How many bombs...

If venting and throwing sicks and stones is the only thing That turns you on and what you can get your kicks from And you accept or haven't come to the realisation or conclusion You think you may indeed need help the plobem lies in you not them Then thinking i spending time with you to gather up the biggest sticks and stone's to...
