Bullies

You stalked like a crow;

I took the blow.

You made the joke;

I took the poke.

 

You blew it up;

hit me like a truck.

I tried to hide;

it felt like no-one was on my side.

 

You left a mark;

at times it made me feel dark.

I pulled through;

what’s left of you?

 

It took you time to realise;

I was beginning to rise.

I played the game;

left you with your shame.

 

Made my dream come true;

in time that flew.

Through all that pain;

not in vain.

I’m the winner, while you’re struggling for your dinner.
