Our World Today

I'm lost in a world, a world without faces, There's so many people in so many places, These places are full but we all feel alone, It's because of technology and the mobile phone. I want to go back to when people just talked, Before social media and being 'Facebook stalked' Facebook is brutal behind the closed doors, People getting bullied and called things like whores. Cyber bullying is a problem that hurts so many, But these companies don't care because they make a pretty penny, This problem should be monitored by people who care, People getting bullied, how is that fair? We thought we escaped it, when we left school, Because we were bullied because we weren't cool, But we came home to Facebook and more of the problem, And it makes us think how can we escape them? Cyber bullying should be looked at because of the pain, The pain that happens over and over again, People who have killed themselves over this issue, And then bully's post, I'm sorry and I'll miss you, How do these people sleep after what they have done, They are the reason that I'm dead and I'm gone. They post picture of me and go to my funeral, How do they do this it just puzzles me, They are the reason I'm dead, because they tortured me, Yet they sit at their computers oblivious of the world, Talking about someone new and hurting them with a word. Cyber bullying needs to STOP before more people die, Before more people go through this and end up the same, Someone needs to follow me and make the claim... The Internet is toxic, when used incorrectly, It causes pain to the person, the user directly, It should be monitored to stop this pollution, Being strict with our youth is the only solution.
