Do Not Forget
Guard your ears young children
Do not listen to what they say
Their vile cruel words of hatred
Are only meant to tear you down
Do not let them win this fight
You are better than their words
For they only tear down
What they can not beat
You are better than they are
But they never will admit it
Your gorgeous smile
Amazing athleticism
Perfect Grades
They want to be like you
Alas they never can
Let them throw words of hatred
Just turn the other way
Show them that you have
More grace than they
For you do not tear down
Everyone around
Even if they are better
You watch your words
And stay civil
Do not let their words
Penetrate your thoughts
You are perfect
An angel
While they are but a devil
Wishing to remove thy wings
