what the purpose of bullying,
when it only make yourself look bad,
you put people down,
just to make yourself feel better,
did you ever stop to think,
what you say mirrors how you feel?
your words may be hurtful,
but what say may show more about you,
you may try to hide it,
but it still shows through,
it's a reflection of what you feel,
and you reflect it on to us,
hoping we will feel the same,
but what if i'm stronger than that,
by not letting it get me down,
will it make you want to try harder?
or until i'm already down?
just to get your licks in,
do what you want,
i know who i am,
and even though it might bug you,
i'll always be the bigger person,
than you any day.
