Sticks and Stones Strengthen Bones
May 5, 2012
The kings sit upon their thrones,
hands full of sticks and stones
Casting judgment on the children
until they grow toughness in their bones.
And while the darkness conceals demons
Your light illuminates my heart
I still find you when I’m dreaming,
So we'll never be apart
You and I, together
Like a lovely work of art.
