It Hurts

they pinch and poke, until they find a joke
they make fun of all the little ones.
they don't care about they're feelings,
but its only to distract others from they're flaws.
i wish they knew how much it hurt
when they pick on me and others,
they don't see the hurt in our eyes.
we don't let them, we just go home and cry.

Sad but great piece, Anastasia. It is true, that bullies know not what they do, when they insult the innocent ones. Keep you head up, and remember, they only insult because THEY are having issues, or insecurities. Keep writing great poems. Enjoyable piece overall. Check out some of my poems. Might find some you like. Peace.
