Bullies

The bully’s the one who is guilty,
Of not knowing how to behave,
So just be responsive to words that they say,
Cos you’re the one who should feel brave.
They say that the words cannot hurt you,
It’s just sticks and stones that cause pain,
But words are as hurtful as rocks thrown,
So here’s my advice to retain:-
Listen to their accusations,
But tell them their words count for nought,
Cos bullying’s act of a coward,
So here’s a few words of retort-
You bully because you’re a weak one,
Who knows your views won’t be supported,
And now you have something to fear,
Cos your actions I now have reported!
