Sticks and stones break bones.
Words and feelings shatter my heart.
It’s like a poet with a whip like tongue.
You lash me with your words and I stagger back.
Begging for the ground to swallow me whole.
Words hurt.
Words are hidden behind sweet tones and kind voices.
But underneath they are *****, derogatory, and filthy.
Don’t call a woman a w—re just because you think it’s funny.
Don’t call a man a f-gg-t just because he has a different clothing style and doesn’t dress masculine.
Words cut deeper than sticks and stones could ever.
Words. Hurt

Words will hurt. I’ve nearly lost two friends to suicide because they were bullied and called derogatory words and slurs. My friends have found professional help and are doing better.
