Beaten DownA Poem by John DupreyHave you ever been kicked when you were down? Yes, and humanity is the cause.They judge you They watch you. Watch your every
step. Your every move. They hurt you. They show you no
remorse. They make you fear
for your life until you can’t handle it anymore. They tear you down,
they break you down until you’re brittle. And when they know
you’re vulnerable, they kick you when you’re down. They make you wish
that tomorrow would never come. In reality, they can
be good, but very few are humble enough. Most days, they prey
on their next target. They attack you until
they have succeeded at their goal. Killing you. They hate you. They chose you. Why? Because you’re
an easy target. Feeding their
obsession is a game of pain for you. They change you. An outgoing kid soon
to be a depressed mental case. Soon, you can’t take
it anymore. All their attacks on
you soon turn into tears. Tears that show that
you’ve had enough. After you’re gone,
they won’t care. They have new prey in
mind. These creatures are
ruthless. They are, Your peers. © 2015 John Duprey |
