He went home and cried

How many times he had tried

It was all in vain

Nothing could lessen his pain

The bullies were all around him

In the classroom, in the hall ways, in the gym

Hovering around him, like a swarm of bees

All he could cry out was "Leave me alone please"

No one stood up for him

No one dared to

His entire life seemed like a lie

For him, none of this was new

When we're out partying with our friends, wishing time would freeze

We need to realize that there's someone out there

Just trying to go through a day in school without being teased

All they need is some love

Someone to tell them it's all gonna be okay

They can't concentrate on their studies, family or anything else

Their future looks so gray

These are memories that can't be erased

They say we're all created equally

But is that really true?

The number of children in distress because of bullying is clearly not a few

We all say that we need to do something to put these kids out of their plight

But when we see something wrong happening in front of us, do we stand up for what we think is right?
