Breaking Stone MAG
July 10, 2009
Below me are the put-downs
others made of me in stone.
Only I can break them,
and only I alone.
For even though they're marked in stone,
they're not permanent. They don't matter.
Only I know my true feelings,
and they can make rocks shatter.
Then I took my true feelings,
and etched them in the sky,
Now I always know what I am,
and the reason why.

Thank you! I'm surprised it got in the magazine, because no one really looked at it

Yeah, but I can request to delete...
but I can see your point, because Teenink is where ALL the most popular girls in school go on the web (playfully sarcastic)
