Thoughts

A poem like speach about bullying.

If you saw someone being bullied, what would you do?
Honestly.
Most people say,
" I would jump in there, and save the day
For the one who is being hurt, and is crying"
But truthfully, you're not even trying?
Trying to help the one who's being handed
Pain, because you're afraid that you'll be branded
With the title " target", the bullies next prey,
Trust me, it doesn't always work that way.

But if you don't want to admit you're not the hero,
That's fine, no one has to know that you are a zero,
On the scale of kindness, truly helping others.
But if you want others to think you'd help,
You want to get caught up in a lie,
That's fine, I won't judge you,
You can say ( but won't) you'd stop the one
Who makes others cry.

But if you are true, and see your mistakes,
And can find all the steps you wish to make,
To get to a point that others recognize,
As a place of kindness, no matter what it takes,
If you are willing to know, what's not right,
Has been your mistake.

Author's Note

Think at the end, because it becomes a little confusing. It' means that your mistake is not standing up for the bullies target, and that you have to try if you want to help.

It's still a little confusing. I believe most people would stand up to a bully--especially now that we're learning so much more about it.
