Sticks and Stones Won't Hurt
Throw your sticks and stones,
 I won't stop being me,
 Even if you break my bones,
 I'll make peace with reality.
 
 Say what you want,
 I won't care,
 Even if you taunt,
 I won't feel despair.
 
 You try to hurt me,
 In a lot of ways,
 But when will you see,
 My happiness stays.
 
 Even if I cry,
 It won't last long,
 It's not like I'll die,
 Because you said something wrong.
 
 You expect me to feel bad,
 Or insecure,
 But I won't get sad,
 This I assure.
 
 Say it to my face,
 Or behind my back,
 I'll just erase,
 Your verbal attack.
 
 So keep Hating,
 Go ahead and taunt,
 You won't keep me waiting,
 From doing what I want.
