They'Re Always Bullying Me

They never give up!
They’re always bugging me, putting me down 
In their onslaughts of hurtful words, gestures, 
Whispers, e-mails, text and tweets.

I don’t have “just one” good friend.

I tell myself, one more year and they’ll be gone 
Away from me, shifted to our tomorrows 
And best part is - I’ll be gone from them.
But, it’s me that’s gotta live my life, tormented 
By them in their nows.

It’s hurtful in here!

This is where I go to block them out 
As well as their rudeness and their tormentations.
This is my spiritual realm; they can’t get in here.
The only ones here are me and strange voices 
Coming from somewhere,
Telling me there is another way, an escape. 
But, I keep rejecting their voices for I know 
They’re not good ways, only destructive ways.

This is what it’s like in my bullied realm everyday
But, I shall overcome them all - everyone.
