Dear Bully

Dear Bully,

When you tear someone

To shreds

Then pick them up

And build a puppet

For you to play with

Does it make you happy

To watch

The disastrous puppet show

That you created

Do you enjoy swimming

In the tidal waves of tears

That you cause

And when your victim

Has gone through so much pain

That a bottle of pills

Is their last hop

Do you rejoice in victory

As you watch the life

Leave their eyes

Becasue if that's what you really want

To tear the hope and love

Away from someone

Then you have succeeded

If your goal is to make someone

Hate themselves so much

That every time they look in the mirror

They see nothing but flaws

Then you have succeeded

And if that wasn't your goal

And you just wanted to have some fun

Then you tell me how muh fun it is

To trap someone's soul

In a cage so dark

That they may never see the light again

Tell me how much fun that is

Step ino their shoes

And find out how much they enjoy it

How much they enjoy

Waiting to cry at home

So you don't pick on them more

Than you already have

How much they enjoy

Hiding the bruises you give them

From their parents

So no questions ae asked

Put yourself in their shoes

Then tell me how much

You enjoy it
