The 16 Year Old Bullied

As I walk along the corridor My hands at my sides Looking at the bully His hands big and wide He makes a massive fist And punches me in the face I hit the ground harshly with a solid punch For my words they did no good Tried to walk away But I never really could His arm is stretched out wide Ready to go again I close my eyes tight and then I count to 10 1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9…10….BOOM The taste of red filled my mouth As it leaked all over the floor I had lost a couple of teeth and of this yes im shore The pain was like fire that torched you if you touch Now im lying on the floor bleeding out my guts Kicking and punching my stomach He showed no remorse As the hits just kept on coming I slowly lost some tears I was like a dog crying for mercy But none was ever showed Chocking on my blood finally there came the blow He punched me right in the temple And the pain just went away as my soul left my body I slowly drifted away

Oh Tracey, that was awful, my grandson went through bullying so my daughter took him out of school, she now homeschools him, I find it hard to believe that kids can be so bloody cruel, take care my friend...........Vera.......
