Bullies

You know you never prosper in the end Acting out because you don’t have real friends Shaming, assaulting and insulting the innocent Some would argue that you aren’t worth a cent In this day and age, you have plenty of platforms And bullying in general can take any shape or form What do you gain from this? You think it’s cool? Whatever your reason maybe, don’t be a fool How would you like it if you were the victim? And you were bullied to a point where recovery was slim You wouldn’t like it would you? So think before you act Your targets are affected for life and that’s a fact See, you acting out must stem from somewhere Maybe you suffered before and feel that nobody cares But if that’s the case, you should find someone to talk to And you will get the help needed to keep you true So remember that and move forward from this day Because bullying hurts people in many different ways

Not Good Enough

We’ve all heard it all before, “You’re just not good enough” “You’re not qualified enough” “You’re not skilled enough” "You're not good looking enough" "You're not fit enough" For that girl, boy or that promotion For that sports team or for that degree These words are so powerful they ruin us When in reality they should inspire They should fuel the fire in our hearts “What do I have to do to get there?” The simple answer is believe in yourself Because only you can fight the pain Only you can keep pushing through And only you can prove to yourself That you truly are good enough

Respect, a word that is seldom used anymore It should be practiced by all and not just for show The world would be different if we just respected each other It seems all we know now is to insult and hurt one another It really doesn’t matter who, what or why? It's inhuman to make fun of those who suffer or die? Acceptance and tolerance it’s all the same The fact that we can sink this low, is a shame Internet comics and trolls think they're so bold In truth they’re insensitive, and their hearts are ice cold Humor maybe relative, but it can cut like a knife Who ever said that a joke, couldn’t take a life? We see it over and over and we do nothing at all The hateful and offensive ideals all over our walls Hundreds, thousands even millions already suffer Life is already tough, so why make it tougher? Nobody has a right to disrespect a person’s beliefs We need to take action and stop all the grief  ...
