He was nine.Hadnt experienced
He was nine.
Hadnt experienced a thing
Expect for being tortured, harassed
And the horrible things that words can bring
Words hurt
They hurt more than sticks and stones
They inflict so much pain
You can feel it in your bones
He had his whole life ahead of him
He could have been a legend, a star
But what he had gone through,
Didnt let him get that far
I hate bullies.
