Do you ever...

Did you not see the damage you caused?

Did you not see the trouble?

That word, that name, that phrase you called her.

You sat there and laughed and laughed cause it was funny to you.

When that girl started balling her eyes out you stood and laughed.

Your friends started laughing and then the rest of the school laughed.

No you never see it cause it makes you happy.

Did it make you happy when you called that little boy stupid because he

had a brain difeciency?

Were you happy when you called the obese girl piggy or when you wrote piggy

on her locker?

What about the people on the sidelines?

Did you not know to go to an adult or stand up for these people?

Or were you the ones laughing too.

Were you all laughing and wishing you had done something when that same

obese girl took her life from the damage that you caused or that the bully caused

with teasing and tormenting.

Do you never see the damage that you cause when you bully?
