A Shout Against Bullying


If once done, then always done, Striking innocence with false images in your words That all they do is hit and run hit and run, Degrading outcast champions like those labeled nerds. Name calling them with disgust is their worst song stuck in their head When all they want to do is live life free ahead But you keep pushing them away. They may be different in race, size, or shape But neither do one two or three reasons tell you to hate. It feels like a punishment out of the Garden of Eden. Just imagine yourself in their shoes, Picture the hatred they have to choose. If only disrespect disappears If only name calling disappears If only hatred disappears and love appears Then they'll have no worries to fear.
