All Bark, No Bite
You do not know what goes on at home.
This person , may be so weak
because they're alone
You do not know how this person feels.
Constantly they find themselves underneath another's heels.
You ask, why don't they take a stand.
Because maybe that stand
would result with the back of another's hand.
You have no clue of who this person truly is.
You will never know what you could potentially miss
by rejecting this person and refusing their hand.
But now, it's time for you to take the stand.
Stand against violence and the calling of names.
Stand up with your newly made friend,
Together, Stand brave.
You never knew how strong was the power of two.
You see the smile on your friend's face,
then you know bullying wasn't your place.
It didn't make you cool or even well-liked.
Many looked at you as all bark and no bite.
Of course, now that doesn't matter.
It won't happen again.
Forgetting all the insults can earn you a friend.
