Some people
pelt me with ice cubes,
filled with harsh
words.
As soon as they hit me,
I want to
fall
and cry,
from the cold,
from the pain.
I have a name,
but
the more
I get pelted
with ice cubes,
the faster my name
fades away.

The author's comments:
I have been called so many names and after hearing them all the time, I started to believe them. That was when I started to hide myself. I didn't want to be a target anymore. I stopped being so social and I basically let the bullies get to me which is something NO ONE should do.

If you love something, let it go. If it loves you, it shall come back. If it doesn't, it was never yours.
