One Of a Kind 2 - RxN story
The petite girl sitting across me had a tiny yet lovely figure; Her platinum-blond hair was swept to the right side of her shoulder, and her skin was pale-white. Her lips were curved into a small smile and I couldn't help but notice she had wonderful azure eyes that had a special kind of glow: she looked like a porcelain doll.
My eyes then drifted to what she was wearing: a short, sleeveless pink dress that fit her perfectly shaped body, very simple pink boots, a pink necklace and a pink rose gracefully laying on her hair. Pink wasn't my color, but the way the garments swayed on her.. it was almost poetical.
She was, without a doubt, the mo

o2 : sticks and stones.
sticks and stones -
she lives during the night, her ravenous eyes desperately searching for excitement to thrive on. she dreams she jumps out her window and flies away, raising her paintbrush into the sky and painting midnight rainbows against scattered stars.
she smiles,
nobody'll know that she made something this beautiful.
and even if they did,
nobody would care.
may break my bones -
she dips her clothed feet into the pacific, and lets the cold pain shoot up her legs, only drawing back before she goes completely numb.
she likes reminding herself that she's still alive, she likes knowing she has control.
(she's mastered it so wel
i live in a glass house.
i'm a hypocrite.
i throw as many stones as i can grasp in my angry little hand.
those stones fall short, however, from their intended targets, and i purse my lips in childish frustration.
mommy always tells me not to throw stones, but i don't listen to mommy anymore.
mommy left our little glass house on the river, and now daddy cries and swigs from his ever-present bottle.
mommy used to play pick-up-sticks with me out in the rain and wind, and we'd laugh about how no one else wanted to play with us, then.
now that mommy's gone, daddy doesn't care to leave the house anymore, and so i stopped going to school last
Trying hard to stop the tears
I closed my eyes against the sneers
My vision filled with all my fears
that have troubled me for all these years
Sticks and stone
may break my bones
and words will always break me
Standing, hurting, arms by side
wondering why a friend should lie
why does she always make me cry
and sometimes make me want to die
Sticks and stone
may break my bones
and words will always break me
Join together, make a stand
take the person by the hand
remind them that, like grains of sand
a bully is common across this land.
Sticks and stone
may break my bones
and words will always break me
Unresponsive lips
Slightly twitching
To mold to his
As he encloses you
With his arms.
Withered away and
Broken bones
Oh dear,
You fell from the edge
Of the universe
And tumbled through
The air
To land in his arms.
Don't disappear on him
Love!
'Cause you're the only
Thing keeping him
Together.
Without you
His joints will
Separate
And his bones
Will dissipate
'Til there's
Nothing left
To hold your feet to the
Ground
So you won't float away
Like you tend to do.
i.
you often compare me to your red satin sheets
that have always been on your bed
you say that you love them too much
and they feel too good on your naked skin
but they are dirty, stained and they are out dated
and you tell me its time to buy a new set
[the difference to me and your filthy sheets
is that i am non refundable, but you just
havent figured that out yet]
ii.
i am closing the door to my heart
and i am constructing a fortress of rusty gates
and my hollowed bones i found lying around
[you broke me down a long time ago,
its time to rebuild]
iii.
you are leaning on me with
makeshift dreams
you say these bubbly lie

Sticks, Stones, and Bones.
Sticks, Stones and Bones.
Sticks and stones will break my bones, but philosophies will always gouge me,
Tyrannical dreams of environmental seams will forever continue to poison me,
Breaking clean of those who mean to always continue to control me,
By streaking alone on mountains of bone will I finally redeem what's in me,
And those who groan and moan on idle thrones will forever seek to answer me,
But my mind in kind will shed the rinds to the pulpy meat within me,
I'm shedding skin and listening in to those who seek to hear me,
And just as toned and the boldest owned will forever want to fight me,
Break my marrow, across the gallows
Nothing sticks, and stones are frequently
dislodged by stumbling feet. They tumble randomly
down the steep slopes of forgetfulness.
Little here is what it seems.
all memory of setting out, with ambitions mapped,
with routes and schemes, has long since faded.
In flashes of lucidity he thinks he can remember a compass,
he believes that once he had been able to navigate by the stars.
That was all before he turned his back on direction,
tacitly admitting he had lost his way. He still sleeps by day,
but only to escape the glare of the present, tense
with threats and dangers he no longer understands.

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words cut like a knife
They leave a scar
Forever there
They cut away your pride
Well sticks and stones may break my bones
But words burn me deeply
It's all pain and suffering
That causes emotions to sting
Well sticks and stones may break my bones
And words can always hurt me
Cause heart to heart
Mind to mind
Person to person nationwide
It's not what bones we break
Or what bruises we create
It's the thoughts inside our broken mind
It's the pain seeped inside
That ultimately kills us slowly
So sticks and stones may break my bones
But words kill me slowly
A broken arm doesn't compar
