[Poetry] Lost Boys

Art by Guillaume Beauchêne

Sticks and stones may break my bones,

But you will never break my spirit!
Call me names, look down in shame,
You will never break my spirit!

We are the Ones that you call Lost,
But we never lost our spirit!
We are the Ones you all forgot,
But we recall our spirit!

In Neverland with Peter Pan
I fly each night in spirit!

We bid adieu to Hook and crew.
My sword cuts through their spirits!

Where you see scars, I see the stars,
You will never break my spirit!
Our hearts are wrapped, we wont be trapped,
Have you ever seen such spirit?
