WORDS OF THE DEAD

(BULLYING)

Forgiveness is the antidote to violence.    Hurting others hurts yourself in the long run.

Truth waves through a misty window
Lies linger; in the lyrical limelight
Rain soaks in the wrecking words
Soaking the brave birds

I am judged for-; being me?
These feverish fears stop my freedom
No rhyme or reason
To their harrowing hatred
Sickening slanders
And atrocious abuse

But bullying is banal
Abuse is just an act
Smart gets smacked
Different, attacked
I say no more

No more hurt
No more pain
As we are
All the same

Stop the lies from lingering
Stop the wrecking words from whispering

Instead
My friends; follow me
We turn, and see
That truth; will no longer; wave through a misty window
