The world is judgemental

When I was younger

And people called me stupid

I would ignore or call it back

But now it’s more complicated

It hurts more

The words pierce my already broken body

Fat

Ugly

Flat

Dumb

Stupid

Some people don’t mean it

They just don’t realize that

It’s hurting

But some people

Mean it

And they show it

Some people try to heal my already broken body

With words like

Beautiful

Skinny

Pretty

But I’m not sure they mean it

And my body is too broken

Into a hundred pieces

For people to heal

Sticks and stones may break my bones, and

Words will always hurt me

I’m breaking all over

People ask me if I’m alright

And I give them a weak smile

And say I am

but on the inside

I’m alone

Broken

Cold

Done

When will it end?

All these hurtful words will get through anything

I try to ignore them

But it doesn’t always work

I try to hide my emotions

But they always show

A flow of tears

Dripping down my face

Scars on my arms and body

And so I’m called a

Sissy

Weak

Freak

Dark minded

I also get backstabbed

By friends who I thought were

‘True’

‘Loyal’

‘BFFS’

But

Gossiping start

Whispers are heard behind my back

Glances are given

About words that were never true

About me

Twisted to their max

True friends are so hard to find these days

Friends who got your back,

Who support you

Back you up

Stand up to you

Even for the most ridiculous things

Cherish them forever

Because you never know who can be trusted

In this world
