Bullying

Poem

Getting bullied cause I'm different?

Don't they see I'm trippin?

Asking myself why.

Whenever I wave "Hi"

They look at me in disgust

As if I'm a virus

When I talk to them in front of others

They put on that face to fool the mothers.

What did I do to deserve this?

All they do is hiss.

"Ms. Bully what did I do wrong?"

You and your friends don't think long.

You just laugh and giggle as I walk pass.

I look at my shoes.

Are they that different from yours?

Saying I dress like a whore.

When really all I did was count to four.

Now, everyday I wear gray.

But, the colors start to fade.

I wear sweatpants and sweaters.

When really I just want to wear leather.

Ms. Bully Why can't you see?

You are killing me.

I try to hide.

But, you wanna start a fight.

Saying I'm ugly

Just because they love me.

You spit words at me.

As if I am mean nothing.

You laugh and giggle at me.

When really, I wanna weep.

Ms. Bully why can't you see?

That I didn't do anything.

I try to fight,

these emotions inside.

I feel alone.

I want to pick up my phone.

And dial any number.

So I can be in a slumber.

Feeling lost

I feel like I have fought,

An endless war against myself.

Calling me names

Just to get fame.

Online you threaten me.

Saying I should go to sleep.

But no, not this time Ms. Bully

I now understand fully.

That you and your pals.

Can do whatever you want.

I won't let your words hurt.

I will kick it to the curve.

I could care less what you think.

Knowing, you're hurting others.

I hope your mothers.

Will soon find out that their so-called angels.

Aren't as agile and kind as they say so.

Ms. Bully you can say whatever you want.

Waste your time.

But, for me I am too busy catching up with mine.
