Why Use Words That Hurt

Loser geek and even nerd Very painful hurtful words Makes you feel pushed and shoved All alone and never loved An outcast by other people Wishing one day you could feel Accepted for being you Born this way you are so true To yourself and never want To change any little part Of this person deep inside Special enough not to hide Qualities that are unique Wishing others would just peek Seeing you are not at all The names you are being called You just want to be treated With the kindness that is needed To survive and not be shunned This hatred needs to be undone

It is a mystery to me why anyone would send messages of hurtful words on the internet. In my mind, names used in this way zing right back to demean the sender.
