BACK THEN

Bullied in School
People thought of me being a fool
My name called out not being my name
Tears often fell
Felt like a loser
Because of being labelled
My life had fear
Growing up I didn’t want anybody near
Life wasn’t easy
As life went on, I began to look at myself as a “Doer and Achiever”
Believing more into myself
Still get the criticism
Let the haters be haters
Every negative alpha letter and sentence made me stronger and stronger being better than before
Confidence for sure
Negativity I just ignore
There is no stopping me
Haters now see
I am the sun bringing warmth
Footsteps track where I am fulfilling
Today, Tomorrow and everlasting is my time to shine.
