How Many
How many
Each day are suffering
From abuse
Or bullying
In this country
Yes daily
Hoping
Praying
Doing all they can
To keep from screaming
See me
Hear me
Please don't just keep
On ignoring me
And doing nothing
How many everyday
Have to die
Either literally
Or emotionally
Yes die on the inside
For you to open your eyes
And finally to others
Be kind
How many
Have to fall victim
To stereotyping
Before you learn
That it is wrong
And finally learn
To not just
Beyond the cover read
But finally
Learn the importance
Of acceptance
Please tell me
Just how many
Will it take
Before you finally see
The reality
That there have already
Been far too many
