    Bully

    Bully

    Dumb
    Fake
    Fat
    Messy
    Ugly
    Worthless

    Noise fills her ears
    The laughter that was once friendly now haunts her mind
    All eyes are turned on her
    The other girls in the bathroom snicker and point
    Tears plummet to the ground
    As she stares into the glassy mirror before her

    No matter how hard she tries, she will never get those names out of her head
    They are stuck, like super glue to paper
    Everything compiles into this one big monster
    A monster with fangs
    And claws
    And poison

    Why?
    Why must they do this?
    Why must they do this to her?

    The other girls know what they are doing
    Their insecurities and spite fuel their actions
    Putting this girl down just brings them up
    Crushing her self-esteem in their path to popularity

    How?
    How can you help?
    How can you, the bystander, help her, the victim?

    It is simple: love
    To love her is to:
    Stand up for her
    Be a friend for her
    Show you care for her


    These actions may seem minute
    They may seem meaningless
    But they are not

    They spark a light inside everyone
    The mean girls will realize their ineffectiveness
    The girl will realize her true worth
    The other bystanders will realize the positive effects of standing up to others

    Words She Will Never Say

    He looks at her, His face covered in awe And the purple crescents stamped under his eyes From the sleepless nights spent…
