Take a Stand

Location

UGLY! FAT! STUPID! WEIRD! HATE!

Are words that cause people to end their fate,

Many lives are lost because they are tormented,

They feel as if they are segment.

They feel like they have no way out and are in too deep,

So they choose to put their mind to sleep…

 

I want to be the voice for those who are afraid!

Afraid of speaking out so that they can get aid.

We live in a world that is full of hate,

But I want to be the one to finally set this straight.

People are suffering and are filled with pain,

Nowhere to turn they are bound with chains.

They can’t escape the poison of words,

Words that are SPIT at them because they are “nerds.”

I want to end this so that people can be free

However, happy endings are hard to see,

It can be anywhere and will never go extinct;

Hate will be everywhere and will always be distinct.

All we can do right now is take little steps,

So come, follow me, in my footsteps.

 

We can end this all if we protect each other,

Stand up to the bully and protect our brother!!

Walk away from the bully to avoid a disaster,

But walk away just a little faster.

We can put together a fundraiser,

To protect those who are cut by the razor;

The razor of words that cut us deep,

We need a place that will hear us weep.

We will raise money to help those in need,

For programs that will help them succeed.

So take a chance and stand with me,

To help those with their cries of plea.

Grab my hand,

And take a stand,

 

Put an end to bullying for good,

We must protect our BROTHERHOOD!!!!
