The Wonders Of Words

Now Do you see

We get called names
Some are the same
Some are different
But I can't get over it
Over the fact that I get treated like a piece of trash
But, I always stay in tact
My emotions don't show
And nobody knows
Who I am
And who I will be
No one will see
See the real me
I try to be cool
But I end up acting like a fool
I am not beautiful
Everybody says so
And I believe them
They get to me
Cause my mind let's em
I feel like I am at the middle of the sea
Drifting away
But all I can say
I won't be back. I'll see you later
I soon fall into the water
Due to persuasion
Due to depression
Look what you've done to me
Are you happy
Me being gone
Not taking up space
And being a waste
No do you see
See who you've made me to be

I was bullied for quite a while and I am still made fun of. I dont count it as bullying though. I also know people who "have fallen into the water" or tried because of bullying. Bullying is not okay guys. It affects them in ways that you might not even know or see. They could be smiling when they are around you, then be frowning at home. If you see bullying, take the time to tell an adult. Help the kid in any way you can so they don't loose their life because of people not accepting them. Make them feel accepted in the world. Make them feel like they matter. Cause no one will ever be a waste of space, not matter, not be accepted. They are not alone and we need to show them that we are there for them, no matter the cost. Thanks for reading and I'm sorry for the huge paragraph. I needed to make a point and I hope you understand. It does not feel good to be bullied or made fun of. This is inspired by the To This Day project.
