When we are taught about bullying The dangers and costs We are told the consequences What can be lost. So I vowed to help others Through thick and thin And promised to never Break open my skin We are told to get help To find someone to trust We are told to survive bullying That is a must But what if the person You loved most Betrayed you And became a ghost I let her down I wasn't there I cry every month Pulling at my hair Thinking about her success In something I'll never be able to do. Who knew my mind Could be a bully too. How can you run away From an ***** inside That terrorizes you Until you want to die. I can't run away I have no choice But to pick myself up And try to clear my voice But things are harder to clear When you face them alone I have no real friends I face the world on my own. My voice grows tired From my screams and internal cries My brain makes me scared To go to sleep every night I'm always forgotten Or in the way Who knew my most feared bully Would be here to stay I've tried to run away But there's no escape I think about the jump Taking a leap of faith Into a world with no light Just pitch black everywhere Until my heart speaks its voice And realizes it doesn't want to be there My most feared bully The worst of them all Will continue to beat me up Until I fall I may be quiet I may soon fall Because my brain has turned Into the most feared of them all

The Most Feared
When we are taught about bullying The dangers and costs We are told the consequences What can be lost. So I vowed to help others Through thick and thin And promised to never Break open my skin We are told to get help To find someone to trust We are told to survive bullying That is a must But what if the person You loved most Betrayed you And became a ghost I let her down I wasn't there I cry every month Pulling at my hair Thinking about her success In something I'll never be able to do. Who knew my mind Could be a bully too. How can you run away From an ***** inside That terrorizes you Until you want to die. I can't run away I have no choice But to pick myself up And try to clear my voice But things are harder to clear When you face them alone I have no real friends I face the world on my own. My voice grows tired From my screams and internal cries My brain makes me scared To go to sleep every night I'm always forgotten Or in the way Who knew my most feared bully Would be here to stay I've tried to run away But there's no escape I think about the jump Taking a leap of faith Into a world with no light Just pitch black everywhere Until my heart speaks its voice And realizes it doesn't want to be there My most feared bully The worst of them all Will continue to beat me up Until I fall I may be quiet I may soon fall Because my brain has turned Into the most feared of them all
First real poem I've wrote where I intentionally wanted it to rhyme. I needed to let feelings out...
