Tormented
Location
His mind was racing
Moving back and forth in his room he couldn't stop pacing
He occasionally looked at the screen and began hating who he was
He recollected how his parents gave him pain but never hugs
Now he realized that the abuse was at his school
Simply because he liked learning did that make him uncool?
Nerd and loser were words posted on his page
He began feeling lonely and trapped, as though he was in a cage
A cage tormented by all those who he disliked
All those who hated him and always tried to pick a school fight
Why was he being judged for being himself?
Sometimes that made him wish that he was somebody else
Tears ran down his face as he stared at the screen again
He had nobody to turn to, not even a friend
Turning to punch the door that was near his bed
A disturbing thought suddenly popped up in his head
I'm not worth anything, so who cares if I pass?
That would stop all the tormenting and bullying that I face in every class
With this in mind he left his room to go to the closet
Pulling out a gun he remembered when his father originally bought it
“Never play with this son,” his drunk father would always say
But now he was thinking that today was day
Today is the day when all the bullying is going to end
Today is the day that people are going to pretend they used to be my friends
Today is day when all my pain will go away
Today is the day when everything will finally be ok
Moving towards the mirror he took one last look
He saw a sad lonely boy who was never held but always shook
Shook by those that he feared
And shook by those who he thought were near and dear
He aimed the gun towards his face while his hand kept shaking
Hearing the alert that another post was on his page made him feel as though his heart was slowly breaking
With one finger on the trigger he felt the tears run down
Then suddenly all that was heard was the sound of his body falling to the ground.
