Sticks and stones
May break my
Bones but words
Will never harm
Me they said
Well, they lied
Bones heal but
Words hurt
Throw a stick
At me please
But do not
Scar me with
Your hurtful words
Bones heal but
Words hurt
Hit me with
A stone please
That wound will
Leave a painless
Scar but your
Words are scabs
That will never
Stop bleeding pain
Bones heal but
Words hurt
Sticks and stones
May break my bones
But your words
Are inflamed abscess
A permanent infection
Bones heal but
Words hurt
I cry once
For sticks and stones
That break bones
But my soul
Weeps quietly enduringly
From your words
Bones heal but
Words hurt
Words Hurt
Amen Ahabue

ZOEY REYNOLDS: There’s a 104 days of summer vacation and school comes along just to end that so the annual problem for wizards and witches is finding a good way to spend it like maybe....... winning at quidditch or punching a malfoy or climbing the astronomy tower. Deciding that Voldemort shouldn’t exist or or giving a hippogriff a shower fighting death eaters destroying horcruxes or locating umbidges brain (it isn’t here) finding diedem cutting the heads off snakes or driving the carrows insane (longbottom!) as u can see there’s a whole lot of stuff to do before school starts this fall (come on buck beak!) so stick with us cos the golden trios gonna do it all. So stick with us cos the golden trios gonna do it all
