Dear the Bullied
Dear the Bullied,
For every harsh name you have been called
Think of the better ones that call you
‘Friend’, ‘daughter’, ‘cousin’, ‘grandchild’ or ‘boyfriend or girlfriend’
Dear the Bullied,
For every hit you have taken
Think of ever hug you have received in its place
Dear the Bullied,
For every degrading word someone has used to describe you
Think of the sweet words others close have said
From “You are beautiful, intelligent, kind, generous, amazing, incredible...”
Dear the Bullied,
For every cruel remark that makes you want to die
Think of the value of your life
Through the eyes of the people that love you
Who’d say “You’re worth more than what you will ever know”
Dear the Bullied,
Next time your bully confronts you
Gather all the people that call you loving names
That describes you in the sweetest way
That could not live without you in their life
And take them to one that dared
To take you from their life
Dear the Bullied,
You are worth more than dime
And let anyone tell you differently.
