Sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me
a total lie!
Names hurt, not physically but mentally
and the scars last maybe longer
If you are lucky you'll come out of it a lot stronger.
Sticks and stones will **** me
names will make me cry
put the 2 acts together and you'll make me want to die
You think it's a joke but I don't find you funny
I die a little each time you bully me
because of you maybe tomorrow I will not wake up
overdose or wrists or something else
All could be averted if you didn't bully me.

I'm a big supporter of anti bullying campaigns but it seems to be getting worse, everyday a new video on Youtube from a victim and news story's of someone committing suicide because of bullying.
Sadly schools don't do much for victims. I myself was bullied at school and I know from personal experience you feel you are alone (you're not but it feels that way) Parents don't understand the scale of how it makes you feel, teachers just make things worse. But also from personal experience after school life your world opens up, it becomes so much bigger and you find people to talk to, new friends and your confidence comes back you come back. So although during school life you may feel like you're dieing at some point in the future you will feel alive once again.
I understand that this poem will not change anything (sad but most bullies only change as they get older) but if any bullies do read this I have something to say (SHAME ON YOU) and if just 1 person does read this and wakes up to the pain they cause someone else, I have this to say, IT'S NEVER TO LATE TO MAKE SOMEONES DAY BETTER
Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed it, if you have any questions please ask them and I will try to answer them a.s.a.p.
