Sara Wilson Poet Elegy

Bully

Another school 
Another year
Another chance
To face one's fear
Another day
Another sorrow
Another lesson
That must follow
One more minute
Until the hour
In which the bully
Will make you cower
One more second
In this life
Is all it takes 
To grab a knife

Now if only
You could turn back time
Make life into a movie
And hit rewind
If you could do this
And only then
Could you hit play
And start again
But this isn't a movie
This is real
And so my blade
You begin to feel
Slowly
And steadily
Sinking in
And now your blood
Runs out of your skin


(Inspired by the movie: Bowling for Columbine)
