Bully of the Day

hes the bully of the day 
time to wipe my tears away 
the fear in me takes hold 
just tell him stop and be very bold 
find some courage use that fear 
time to stand up to him here 
for this is it 
your time to shine 
tell him no 
make him cry 

walking with a shiver and a quiver to my stride 
theirs fear on my face but im trying to hide 
i ask for his attention he turns around real slow 
makes a wired face and with one big blow 
i am on the floor 
bleeding on the ground 
hes standing there laughing 
and im not making a sound 
everyone just stares 
no one gave me help 
im hurting on the floor 
i think im in hell 
he pulled me up 
up by my hair 
pushed me to the wall 
then he just stared
told me im dead 
and so i hang my head 
the bully of the day 
will take my life away

as sad as it is. yes i am bullied.... by boys and girls. i suffer major depression and my family is worse. but im glad that i can put it out to the world because then i know someone is listening someone is hearing my voice... no one should ever have to go through with bullying but sadly it happens. if you noticed all my storys are true. all my poems tell the reader what i have seen and experienced and felt... i just hope not to offend anyone.
