Bullied


For years,

They called him names.

Every hour of everyday,

Harassing comments; slandered.

He tried and tried,

To make the voices stop.

Not knowing what to do,

Can't handle the pressure.

Walking home from school,

He had time to think.

Finally making a decision,

To end the torture and pain.

 Screaming "their" name in vain,

As he takes his last breath.

Now he lies there,

Endlessly forever.

As they have to live with guilt,

Or not.

His name was Justin Aaberg
