“Spiteful words can hurt your feelings but silence breaks your heart.”
“Your heart literally hurts when it's breaking. You can feel it, every beat another ache, and nothing you can do will stop it, either from beating or breaking.”
“Sticks and stones and fists CAN break your bones, but it's the words that break your heart.”
“Sticks and stones may break your bones but words can break hearts.”
“Like a broken vase does not fear of breaking once more, my broken heart is not affected by your hurting words anymore!”
“Sticks & stones may break your bones & hurtful words can destroy more than you know!”
