vipers
the kids behind phones
are absolutely vicious.
the cute pictures on
social media apps
are deceptive.
these kids know where to hit
and how hard.
they don't give
a single shit
about you.
they break you down
when you're trying your absolute hardest
to get back up.
all i did was state my opinion
all i did was try to stop a fight
all i did was tell her it wasn't going to work
and i got told
"you're such an idiot."
"go slit your wrists, you poser."
"you fucking bitch! i hope that noose works."
all i did
was exist
and i got told...
"why don't you kill yourself?"
