They feel better when he's down
Even better when it's their fault
Throw his dignity to the ground
With every jeer they put out

They tease him because he's smart
And his voice is too high
They tease him because he's poor
And his clothes aren't the right size

The others, they don't know
How he feels deep inside
He keeps it to himself
Hidden from wandering eyes

So every time he tries to
Duck out of their way
He remembers one thing,
"I'll get them someday,".

We have all seen bullying happen and it is a terrible thing. Many people are working to stop bullying and those people are true heroes to me and countless others. One individual can make a big difference as we continue to create a bully free world. Something that is very inspirational.

Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers, but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not pray for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it.<br /> ~ Tagore

You really showed the feelings that a bullied child experiences, great job! It can be hard to make a poem rhyme while still using good word choice but you did a stupendous job! 5/5
