I wrote my name in blue ink you scribbled over it in black. you’re still mad at me I think though I can’t quite figure out what it is that I lack.

Nails of the master’s reach... No way out, no returning to innocence. The bullied beat, the bullied beat... Knife of the master’s heart we twist round - Nails scrape for us... but it’s useless. You are your own rose running, sweet one, smoker... And they’re stale in their master’s keep. Don’t need to keep the master beneath us... In these vertical, breath-short windows, they are the beat-less... And you stare straight through them. Smash their hearts with sugar... A life that keeps no secrets... far from the master’s weakness.

The Master's Weakness
At morning you wake, the sun burning your eyes, you wonder how much more it will take, until you reach your demise, you're already counting down the hours left in the day, terrified for what's ahead, planning how to get away, from all the words they haven't yet said, you start your slow walk to school, with your earphones full blast, levitating straight down the hall, please can this day be the last, it's hard not to think it's your own fault, when you're the reciever of every stare, and the target of every insult, that plunges you further into despair, you want to scream "what did I ever do to you?", for them to treat you like **** on their shoe, to have your spirit beaten black and blue, how can people tell you to ignore it, when everyday you take a hit, you reported them but it was no use, they practically just tied your noose, so inside it you place your head, and you do as they wished, so now you're dead, then they'll say how much you'll be missed

Bullied
"You're not a lot of fun to be around" she blurted Not the first time I've heard it I went From being bullied to being A bully, was never meant to be permanent You can probably guess what temperament brought more enjoyment? So there's a solid argument to be had for it being a just verdict But if you've never been in that predicament hold your judgmental hyperbolic rhetoric Most folks seek out that kind of empowerment but keep it quiet, I'm just admitting it Look, nobody's perfect but the crime has never fit my punishment Pushed and shoved "getting back to the old me" to the back burner, against my better judgement Cause I didn't bother with it any further, now a derelict social misfit Then when it's my turn to take back the moment My retort, a one and done statement; Fck you, fck the planet and fck everyone on it Easier to parrot that then to admit no one can stand me past the first minute I don't know if it's the misplacement of hurt and anger, a cover for inadequate social alignment Or a relentless deep seeded resentment for the general public Not sure but it definitely feels organic This old dog ain't capable of learning a new trick regardless of any enlightenment Kinda sad isn't it? ©2024

Messy hair and stained white shirts. The laughing stock of this tiny stage. Stare at your feet, Velcro sketchers covered in sand.

Oblivion
To be bullied is to be numb. Having something that makes you happy to have it taken away from you. To live in Pennsylvania, to have my first boyfriend. Everything was great. It was perfect. Until one day I felt the burning in the back of my head as eyes stared at me. Rumors had spread that I was bisexual. They were true, but no one knew that. To be bullied nonstop. Remembering the excruciating pain in my back as I was slammed into lockers. Eventually having to leave before anything extreme happened. That was the toughest thing I ever did. Having to leave everything behind, my friends and family.

The Bullied
Hiding behind a mask. A shadow to others, unnoticed by all. Some say that beauty lies beneath. Not in today's world. Judgmental eyes follow you like heat-seeking missiles. Their glare can burn you from the inside. As what seems like a million beady eyes staring, you are bound to make a mistake. As you wander aimlessly, hoping for this day to end, the world seems to turn slower, and slower. You feel as if time is against you, that it finds joy in your sorrow. One slip and you are called clumsy. One tear and you are called a crybaby. One wrong answer and you are called stupid. One word and you can be forever laughed at. So if you hold your tongue, remain quiet, never show emotion, and hide in the shadows, you can protect yourself.

Bully
Nothing as mind described was sin, suppressing was actual sin. It kept coming in, some days unwilled, some days willed, it gone leaving perplexed and guilt. Flocked and bounced until it got exhaust, left inside everything holocaust. Innocent, unaware, bruised himself in threads of twisted thoughts. Unshared, whispered in thin air, shredded in half. Coagulated and stranded thoughts, bruised and bullied, ravenous remarked, fetched the tears in glass. Distraught and regret pervaded, filled the state of mind with depressed art. admonished till blood turned cold, still nothing could abolished the suppressed doubts, it still came out, healthy and curious, to demolish everything owned.  nothing as mind described was sin, suppressing was actual sin.

I get asked every day Like why "I am so crazy? **** I've been like this since day one Life feels like an empty High-way If you got ADHD like I do You won't feel so lazy each one of us has a different story you wish you can be just you stay focus while driving your car don't need to worry about taking the bus anymore, overthinking again hoping you wouldn't get bullied teens like me, are afraid to get a little bit too high Cause, the drugs will mix with our medication. Our ADHD got us all Tripping I pray to god hoping that one day i will stop doubting All the feeling i hide within my mask I can't even smile cause all feeling has us all overwhelming we all have the same question we got to ask no one knows how we are dealing we just hold it all in and smile and pretend like we all love our life. Remember you are perfect just the way you are Don't let your ADHD stop you from reaching your goals you can wish upon a shooting star get back up on your feet, and fill these empty holes. Remind yourself everyday you are a gifted child with ADHD that is one of the many reasons why you are so unique

Life Was Bettter When I Slept
Mama Hugs me Whispering soft letters That sing together And let off a gentle glow They warm me up And heal my scars She builds me a sailboat And I float Float Float Up into cotton candy clouds She is my sail She makes smiles creep onto my face Floating along My world of haziness My boat dancing In the soft breeze Which caresses my skin Her whispers singing Against it Then I hear splashing The waves are now rolling Higher then I can handle Their insults weaving their way In and out Pebbles are tossed at me Until they are boulders And my sail is sinking And my boat is sinking And I too, am sinking Down Down Down And now I drown In my sea of tears The waves Still thrashing me around And I sift about Like sand Letting them Drag me I go In and out Of school and insults In and out Of my home, and warmth Their words go In and out As they settle in my skin And bleed out of my eyes Leaving marking on my face Until I hold onto Every word they say. Til I too am a wave Washing my brain Filling it with pain Sifting around in the abyss of my head I've sunk

Why did she coose me to be the one? Why did she choose me to be a target? Why did she choose me to be weakest? Why did she choose me to be the worst? Why did she choose me to be the ugliest? Why did she choose my to be the dummy? Why did she choose me to be the fake? Why did she choose me? Why me?

Why me
Just because it's called makeup doesn't mean it has to make up who you are. Just because someone is bullying you doesn't mean they're not being bullied too. Just because someone tells you you're stupid or ugly doesn't mean it's true. Now, it's true that just because you read something it doesn't make it true. But it's important to know that just because you're feeling blue, it doesn't mean it's the end of happiness for you

You come at me screaming With rage in your heart Threatening me with violence But I stand still You think you are scary But you have no idea What goes on in my head Everyday of my life You scream and shout That no one wants me around Don’t you think I already know that That it’s all I ever feel like I stay to myself I have little to no friends I hide in the shadows of my mind Waiting for deaths embrace Compared to my head Your threats are nothing But a glorious welcome To deaths open arms So go ahead Act on your aggression Push me and beat me You are only fulfilling my wish End my pain Take away the sorrow Remove the last breath And end the suffering But if you think for one second I’m just going to run and hide Think again Cause I’m not the type to run away from death I walk towards it willingly Grasping at the edges Feeling the soft ends Of deaths beautiful cloak So please continue to belittle me Scream and shout some more Show the world you are just a child In an adult body Push me over the edge Make me bleed out Cut me with your fists Cause your words do nothing They are void They have no meaning You want so hard for me to attack But that will never happen Try all you want My emotions stay the same For if you’ve forgotten You can scare someone with a death wish But sadly death doesn’t want me yet So you will be wasting your time I have survived all attempts My work is not yet finished My door will not open Not for you or for me So go ahead and try it It will only end up in vain

I'm brown skinned with black marks to add The black marks add the extra hue to my skin But I'm being crucified because of it I'm being disregarded because of it I'm being ignored because of it I'm being hated because of it I'm being disrespected because of it I'm being discouraged because of it It was supposed to be a bound art of recites upon skin A simple brown black piece to be admired A symbol to walk with pride and adoration I'm brown skinned with black marks to add The black marks add the extra hue to my skin Searched for certain little sin on the black marks added to my skin have I wronged anyone? By not choice but by if nature has chosen To paint a sacred black spots on a brown skin Black spotted brown skin if not clear brown skin As happy as I will be As proud as I will be Words of the world's eye may not bruise part of my heart I'm brown skinned with black marks to add The black marks add the extra hue to my skin As grateful I shall become By :kaledynthinks

I must really get under your skin Maybe that's why you are mean Why don't you give it a rest? Am I really a pest? I am not insecure You have a heart that's unpure They call me a ***** It broke my heart, now it can never be stitch They say, "you're full of crap!" PLEASE MAKE IT STOP But, you can never bring me down Nor make me frown, not anymore I know I'm going to be a star So, thanks for giving me this scar Please bury yourself in the tar And watch me as I drive my fancy car

Is violence the intention and action to harm other people? Is the target of violence joyful and happy? Ask someone who's been robbed at knifepoint? Ask a wife who’s being bashed by her husband? Ask a child who’s being beaten-up by a bully? Is the doer of violence joyful and happy? Ask a person barking toxic speech? Ask a mother who’s beating her child? Ask a robber confined in prison for many years?
