Tracey Lawrence Poet Dramatic Verse

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
