This is for all the kids who are bullied 由 words. My teachers always say be bleacher people. Lift others up. I hope this poem gives that message to others.
你 yell at me
mean words.
They
pierce my heart.
I say its ok.
I 移动 on.
But the words
still have power.
They still hurt
me.
My friends
tell me
its a big deal,
and that I
need to tell
a teacher.
But I say im fine.
Im really not.
I want to
believe
that im fine,
I want to
believe that
it was
nothing.
But it was
something.
Words always
have power.
Enough power to
strike me
down,
或者 lift
me up.
Why must
你 hurt
me?
你 yell at me
mean words.
They
pierce my heart.
I say its ok.
I 移动 on.
But the words
still have power.
They still hurt
me.

I know the way it eats your mind
The way your brain, eaten up
The one that leaves 你 silent, blind
Long after you've had enough
I know the way it devours your thoughts
The way 你 feel confused
It feels like a million knots
It leaves 你 feeling used
I know the way it stabs your 心
The way it leaves 你 here to bleed
It makes quite sure to tear 你 apart
The time 你 really need
I know the way it hurts your feelings
The way it leaves 你 blue
你 say 你 see, when not really seeing
你 say 你 know, but that's not true
I know the way 你 try and hide it
But then 你 know you'll always find it
In the trees and in the gravel
This lie 你 call friendship, I can't unravel.
