A fight

A fight 

A fight between a ceo and an accontant

A fight between a scrawny boy and a giant

A fight between a lonley boy getting attacked on facebook

A fight

Thats what bullying is...

The fight to know that under there insults you are perfect

Pretending you're okay

Pretending you don't care

But we do the names don't just pass through they stick

Sticks and stones break my bones but words also hurt me

Even if you put on armor

Armor has chinks

Blow after blow you take it

But someday that armor will break

The only thing keeping you okay

Is the thought no matter how small

That you are better than them

You made it on your own

You didnt need to hurt anyone

You survived

You're alive

Some of us don't make it

But they don't think they can

They gave up they stopped fighting

Never stop fighting

Not with punches or guns

With emotion

Let them know they don't affect you

You're pain is what drives them

Don't let them have any of it

They are the ones who need help

Not you

So keep fighting

Even if it gets hard

Keep Fighting.

Very insightful. I agree that

Very insightful. I agree that you have to fight at all...keep fighting to let go of it all because what others say/do/act on, is not about you. Just a reflection of themselves. This is a great encouraging write.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
