BULLYING!
I am the person who walked home alone
I am the person who sat on my own
I am the person who dreaded school
I am the person who did not want to play
I am the person who had no friends
I am the person you said had no trend
I am the person you pushed around
I am the person who made NO sound
I am the person who got all the blame
I am the person who you called lame
I am the person you made cry You are the person who made this all true
And now i comited suicide because of you

I'd like to tell them what they put me through
And how they made me feel
I'd like to tell them how they hurt me
As i wait for my wounds to heal
I'd like to tell them how i cryed
Again and again and again
I'd like to show them my cuts and bruises
that remind me of their pain
I'd like to tell them what i think of them
And that i never did anything wrong
I'd like to turn back the hands of time
To stop my misery from going on so long
I'd like them to think of me
And remember what they've done
That they hurt me, my friends and family
And thought it was fun
I'd like them to think of me
As i tied the rope to my bed
And wrapped it tightly round my neck
But i can't.....
Because im dead

Sticks and stones broke my bones, but it was the names that killed me.

Bullying
by Alexandra Galvis
As I make my way to school each day
To see the girls who break my soul
I wish I could tell the bullies in my school
Can you be kind and not so cruel?

And it starts and lasts all day
I cannot stand it, go away
Just close your eyes and you will see
All the memories that you have engraved in me

I think to myself
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear
It's not that easy you must know

I'm not a project of anybody
I'm not your pity either for you to be my friend
Give me a chance so you can see
There is nothing strange about me

That you have not let them see
I ask myself will this ever end?
I just feel empty time to time inside me
Sooner or later I'll break down and cry

Let the darkness fill the room
I can't get out of it, I can't resume
I feel so alone like a single red rose,
So alone like a story that's never been told
I feel so alone like a sparrow in the sky
Like a bird who cannot fly

I am lucky to have a family like mine
Who understand me and feel pride
Otherwise my world would be dark
With every unpleasant memories
That is left inside me.

Never allow anyone to bring you down
On your mind make these feelings
Make you stronger and put your head up high
Never keep it silent
There is nothing to feel ashamed of
Only to those that join in all that harm.

As I get up in the morning
To prepare myself for school
My body and my mind
Start to get scared and
My life felt very dark inside
I couldn't take it any longer

As I started to share my pain with my mum
I didn't know how to explain to her
It all came out with tears and a broken heart

She couldn't comprehend as I hid it for a while
I showed her every day I was a happy child
Nobody will understand that bullying can make such harm
I ask myself everyday what wrong have I done

Why bullies don't take a day in my shoes
To feel the unpleasantness to feel unwanted
To understand how much damage they have done
When you feel scared and abused inside

If you ever feel you've been bullied
Never feel guilty and keep it shut
Just remember it's not your fault
There are always jealous cowards in this world.

The Last Time....


The last time I laughed was never,
the last time I cried was today,
The last time I was pushed over was five minutes ago,
Every school day seems to go on and on....


The last time I bled was yesterday,
The last time I went without food was break,
The last time I sat by myself was....everyday.
I pray for the end of school to save me.


The last time I had a friend was pre-school,
The last time I played with a person was then,
The last time I had the will to live was....


I can't remember,
I won't be returning to school in September.


This poem was written by a 14 year old female, called Angharad. I have since spoken to Angharad who is now 18 and she told me her life has now changed for the better - this shows there IS life after bullying.

thx and no i didnt write them if n e 1 asks

[snapej]

Sticks and stones can break your bones
but........names can break your heart
for bones and bodies can be repaired
but broken hearts will tear you apart
and leave you in despair!

I got tired of hearing `names will never hurt you` as I grew up.
I knew they could affect your self esteem, create anxiety, contribute to depression, scar your soul. But in those days I couldn`t express this. Now I teach and counsel kids and believe them when they say they feel hurt from being called names. I also take time to teach them assertive language (I feel really `hurt,/annoyed,/down` when you say things like that) and empower themself with PIST off talk (Positive Identity Self Talk eg Glad I`m not like them, they must be jealous, at least I have ...), The Real Justice program is another very effective tool.

[snapej]

With no worries or fears,
I walk out of school,
To the end of the street,
Alone......what a fool.

My cousin turns the corner in a car with her dad,
Then a girl shouts out, `Do you remember me?`
By the look on her face
I think Is she mad?

I look at her face with no recollection
Then her voice calls me back
With the terrifying words,
`You`ll remember me by this...`
I am lost for words.

She punches me first, I try to duck,
Then I tell her my brother`s a copper,
To try and stop her from throwing another,
But....no luck.

I take another blow to the face,
My head goes forward,
She grabs my hair and pulls me to the ground,
I no longer feel the pain as I hit the cold hard ground.

She still has hold of my hair,
And punches me in the face without a care.
Then she lifts my upper body,
Through the strength of the hair she`s holding,
I feel her bring my head forward,
Then she takes it back,
I know what`s going to come as I start to fall back.

She hits my head against the pavement,
I open my eyes,
Then as she lifts my head,
The sole of her foot meets my eyes.

My nose is going is what I think,
As she stamps on my face,
My heart begins to race,
I am frozen and only manage to shiver and shake.

She punches me now in the face and the head,
I begin to wonder does she want me dead?
Then she lifts my body via the hairs on my head....
I think to myself, please God I don`t want to be dead.

I heard a boy shout, `Keep going, keep going!`
A crowd has now built,
The blood is now flowing.

I look at the crowd and wonder why,
They are all there staring....
No one can look me in the eye.

I feel another blow to the side of the head,
She lets go of her grasp to my hair,
Enabling me to be set free, or so I thought,
I lie on the floor,
Again, she stamps on me....

When will this end?
Will it end???
She shouts at me, `You remember me? You remember me?`

She says her name, I remember her now,
I lie on the floor and wonder when will she stamp on me, hit me or punch me again?

I lay on the ground,
In a daze I looked round,
I hear the gasps of horror from a now big crowd.

I can feel my face swell,
I put my hand to my face,
Blood on my hands....
I silently ask....why? Why my face?

I try to get up but fall back to the floor,
Then a lady helps me up,
I think, `Please don`t let me suffer any more....`

I get to my feet,
A friend comes to me,
Then two teachers appear,
They just look at me.

I thank the lady,
Then see my younger cousin,
I tell her I`m okay,
But by the look on her face, I wonder....
`Does the pain in my eyes give it away?`

I walk into school,
Into the first aid room,
They talk about my injuries,
They treat them and ask do I know why it happened
I genuinely reply, `I haven`t a clue.`

My parents arrive, the police shortly after too,
As she takes a statement,
They all ask why too....

A visit to A&E,
Amid x-rays and gasps,
Then back in the car and on we go....
They tell me its over now,
No more beatings to go....

After a trip to my aunt`s,
We all arrive home,
We await for the police,
I just want them to go.

As I tell the story to the police again,
I feel every blow,
And feel the pain and the beating for the second time that day,
As I relive the horror I`d faced that day.

I wake next day,
The memories of yesterday too hard to forget,
Looking in a mirror....I wonder....will I ever forget????

Pictures are taken,
messages are sent,
Phone calls are made,
But will the memories EVER fade?

I don`t want pity,
I haven`t cried yet,
And without the pity,
The whole thing may be easier to forget.

I close my eyes and try to sleep,
But the horrors of that Wednesday,
Come back like an action reply, I guess their memories I`ll have to keep,
Take pills the doc says, family and friends agree with him too,
But they just fade the nightmares,
Doc you got anything for the memories too?

I return to school,
I get told I`m brave,
I wish they wouldn`t say it,
If I had the choice I`d have never have gone through it.

It`s Saturday now,
She`s still out there free,
thinking she got away with beating me.

Now remind me....which is justice....give me a clue!

[snapej]

Day by day
The kids I knew
Were always mean
Were always cruel

They spat remarks
their words were poison
and I wondered why
I was chosen.

Was I defective
Was I a freak
Was I the small one
Not strong but weak

But even when
all hope was gone
I forced myself
to carry on

On July 6th
that wintry day
I was punched in the face

I turned around
tears in my eye
I wiped the blood,
and screamed out `Why?`

He looked at me
a questioning glance
and I knew then
there was a chance

I didn`t run
I walked away
and I knew he didn`t
know what to say

At home alone
I put a bandage on
and I knew right then
I`d tell someone


I told the teacher
with my heart in my throat
how I got
blood on my coat

She looked at me
I looked down
And for a moment
there was no sound

She said `I`m very proud of you
and don`t you worry,
I know what to do!`

And from that day
when I stood up
and told someone
what was up

I never was touched
or sworn at again
I even made
some brand new friends

I`m not saying
this will always work
But even if you
feel like a jerk

Turn to your enemies
Ask them why
If it doesn`t fix it
at least you tried

But I know this
for this is true
there is nothing
wrong with you.

Even though
you want to scream
force yourself
and keep your dreams.

[snapej]

Why do you hate me so much?


I’m all alone in this fight, can’t you see? There’s 6 of you and 1 of me,
It’s just not fair, please walk away. Please don’t beat me up today.


You gang up on me at school today. I get hit so much that I could run away.
But I am brave, I’ll see this through. My life is hell and it’s because of
you.


The next time I get hit, I could be dead. Or lying hurt in a hospital bed.
But of course, this means nothing to you. Because it’s your life, it’s what
you do!


“You are ugly!” “You are fat, and that’s all you’ll ever be!”
I wish you knew what trouble you’ve caused by repeating those words to me.


But my hurt is something you’ll never feel and I hope you never do!
Because my life is empty now and I’ve never felt so blue.


I have no friends; you’ve managed so well, to turn them all against me.
I can’t sleep at night for fear of my dreams; I just wish that I could be
free.


Some years have passed, nothing’s changed at all, you must hate me real bad?
Is it really that much fun, making me so sad?


It’s getting close to the last day of school, time to leave this life of
hell.
Just too much has happened to me, some of which I’ll never tell.


I can cover up my bruises; hide the scars and the hurt too.
But I never will be able to forgive you, for what you’ve put me through.


As much as I try, even today, these feelings inside won’t go away.
I never should have been treated that way and if you tried it how I’d have a
lot to say.


But you wouldn’t do that because you’re a coward. Your friends have gone and
you’re all out of power.


Now I am older, I’ve found true friends I can be myself and not pretend.
This brings my poem to a happy end :-)


My thought:
YOU CAN SURVIVE BULLYING! I’m not sure that the hurt that these people cause
will ever go away, but it does make you stronger! x x x

The Bullies!

It's Monday morning,
I walk through the door,
The boys nick my books,
They chuck them on the floor!

I walk down the corridor,
They are thumping me,
My arms are all bruised,
And so is my knee!

They really are quite clever,
There is noone there to see,
All the nasty things they say,
And the way they bully me!

They get me into trouble,
By pretending it was me,
I know I didn't do it,
But what will become of me!

I am so unhappy,
My mum thinks I am ill,
I really don't want to go to school,
I even take a pill!

My friend says I must report them,
Else things will stay the same,
I tell my favourite teacher,
Who says she'll stop their game!

At last things are better,
The boys have left the school,
I should not have kept this quiet,
I know I was a fool!

I now enjoy my lessons,
I don't feel ill no more,
I'm glad that is over,
I found it quite a bore!

Poet's Corner

Today at school it was nearly time
Nearly time to go home
I ran to my locker but they were there
Sitting and staring with an evil glare
They stood up all three of them
Came up to me and said
"You're not going, you're staying instead"

They picked me up and carried me away
Where were they taking me? They would not say
We were heading for a cupboard with lots of things inside
I hoped we weren't going there but I bet that was in their minds

We got to the door and they pushed me in
They locked the door so noone would get in
I was left alone with nobody there
My heart was pounding I wanted my mum
I need the key to be able to escape this horrible tragedy

[snapej]

every time some 1 gives me some rep i will put on another poem

[snapej]

I'm the person you bully at school
I'm the person who doesn't know how to be cool

I'm the person you anilite
I'm the person you ridecule and hate

I'm the person who sits on his own
I'm the person who walks alone

I'm the person you scare everyday
I'm the person who has nothing to say

I'm the person with hurt in my eyes
I'm the person you never see cry

I'm the person living alone with these fears
I'm the person destroyed by his peers

I'm the person who drowns in your scorn
I'm the person who wishs he hadn't been born

I'm the person you destroy for fun
I'm the person but not the only one

I'm the person whos name you don't know
I'm the person who can't let go

I'm the person who has feelings to
I'm a person just like you

The Bully The class bully smarts his way through
English class,
Everyone listens to what he says and laughs.
His grades are falling,


The teachers are calling.
He shrugs them off,
Not caring at all.
He sits and stars paper blank,
His only thought a single blink.
After school he lounges around,
Later he meets his friends for a night on the town.
His friends ask if he wants a smoke,
He accepts not caring he is doing dope.
He comes home late his mother lectures,
He only ignores her remembering his ventures.
Later that night he sneaks out quietly,
Not realizing the change to come that
is really quite mighty.
He met his buddies by the store,
They drank and smoked till stomachs
could hold no more.
Soon a game came around,
Of who could drive the fastest around town.
The bully not realizing he was drunk,
Volunteered first hoping to seem real tough.
He jumped in the car and yelled to them all,
That he was the best and right on the ball.
Instead of that ball his car landed on
top of another.
Inside were Jenny and her father and mother.
For they had just come back from the
hospital you see,
And Jenny was their new baby.

They were going home to raise her right,
To teach her the difference from naughty and nice.
To love her with all there might,
But there chance ended that night.
As the bully climbed out of his car only bruised,
He looked into the other car to see some real bad news.
There was a couple and a small child he
hoped what he saw was simply a lie,
For there they lay all covered in blood and ready to die.
Those next few hours to the bully are now a blur,
He only remembers two things more.
He remembered the man grab his wife's
hand so their last few moments on
earth they could share.
But nothing on earth could ever compare,
Not even his charges of three manslaughter,
The look he got from their baby daughter.
For as she breathed her last breath,
She smiled her first and last smile
just before her all too soon death.
To this day he sits in that cell,
Remember that look he got from Jenny
who's now an angel.

Stop Verbal Abuse!

There's no excuse
For Verbal abuse

Teasing and taunting
words keep haunting

When a bully comes, gather
For the bully can't beat us all

Ongoing taunting
Could make someone die

When you look the victim
In the eye, all you can see
Is a world filled with hate

So STOP! the verbal abuse!

[snapej]

Don't Bully!!

Some people bully because they are mad,
Some bully because they hurt and are sad,
Some people do it, just cause they're mean,
Some want to raise their self-esteem.

Think before you speak,
Think before you act,
Don't talk about people
Behind their back.

You'll make more friends,
By just being nice,
Respect others' feelings,
And don't pick fights.

If you have a positive attitude
Towards everyone else,
You'll feel a lot better
About yourself.

[snapej]

How far would you go?

How can you say he's differnt?
He can say you're different



He might be different from you
Everyone is different
No two people are the same

Why do you make fun of him?
You're not better than him
Why put him down?

How would you feel?
If tomorrow came and he didn't
You think he's just sick or chickened out
Later that day you hear
He committed suicide
He wrote your name in his note
He blamed it all on you

How would you feel?
Would you feel bad? Guilty?
Would you change your ways?
Would you make fun of someone
Until they take their life?
Does it make you feel good
To put someone down?
Will you not stop?
How far will you go?

[snapej]

Differences

Discrimination - Single out for special favor or disfavor, distinguish between.

Racism - Belief in innate superiority of particular race; antagonism towards members of a different race based on belief

------------------

In this world everyone isn't the same.
We all have certain beliefs.
Some may be similar some may not,
That's no reason to become distraught.

Nobody should be singled out,
For how they look or how they talk.
Put yourself in the other person's place,
Do you still want to discriminate?

Just think of how many people,
Have to deal with racism each day,
Just because they are a different color.
Without variety, this world would be so much duller.

A difference in a person.
An opposite view on a God.
There's no reason that I see here,
To be rude or bestow fear.

Life could be just one ounce easier,
If we didn't antagonize what was different.
If we could try to help instead of degrade.
We could all make tomorrow, a much better day.

[snapej]

The Same Yet...So Different

Every once and a while I wonder why people think it's bad to be different like
Our skin color, black, white, brown, red,
We're all the same... yet so different
Our nationality, Chinese, Portugese, Indian, Polish, African, German, Japanese,
We're all the same... yet so different.
Our gender, male, female,
We're all the same... yet so different.
Our religion, Christian, Baptist, Goth,
Our occupations, nurses, doctors, carpenters, cleaners
We're all the same... yet so different
Our hair, curly, straight, wavy, black, brown, blonde, red.
We're all the same... yet so different
It's hard to be yourself these days with everyone putting us down because of
what we look like or what we don't look like, or what we believe in or don't believe in, or
who we are or who we're not.
The world would be so boring without all the differences.
I am glad I am different.

[bek]

:excellent :yes:

[snapej]

He's black, I'm white

I don't see why we have to fight.

He hates me. I don't mind him

Why is he hung up with the color of my skin?

He pretends I'm not there, and it's not fair!

I wish it could end.

So I could be his friend.

If he could only pretend

that our skins can blend.

then I'm sure that we could be good friends

[snapej]

The Wall

The wall is something terrible,
But it happens just the same.
It starts with a look, then some nasty words,
Then someone calls a name.

Most often there's no reason
Maybe just the color of their skin
Or maybe it's the clothes they wear
That prevents them from fitting in.

So someone picks a person
And then the wall appears
It's not just shoving or punching or kicking,
Words also cause tears.

So now this person's excluded
With nowhere else to run
They just sit on the sidelines
Watching everyone have fun.

So now you know the story
About the dreaded wall,
All the outside people want
Is someone to make it fall.

For all can belong

Discrimination isn't right,
It hurts us all day and night

It strikes us all with no remorse
With the speed of a galloping horse

It pains, it stings
does anyone care?

Yes, yes but who?
and where?

Come to Birchwood
and there you'll see
smiling faces, just like me

There we'll help,
and put to an end

To discrimination,
For all can belong.

Another Day

As I stand in the hall, I watch as a boy hits the wall
I wonder why this is such a place where people are judged by their race

As I look at all my peers
and watch as no one interferes

As I watch the pounding rise
He is trying to hide his pain and cries

Why does he keep bullying him?
It's not like he can change his skin

As a teacher pulls them away
The students know it's going to happen another day.

[snapej]

lets be friends



Why can't we all be friends?
Black or white or red,
It shouldn't matter in the end.

In this world today,
People judge others by their skin color.
I believe that is wrong.

Put yourself in their shoes.
Would you like to be teased?
Would you liked to be tormented?

I don't think so.
I wouldn't.
So just be kind.

We must put it to an end.
Think of a better tomorrow.
A tomorrow with no racism.

Let's all be friends.
Black or white or red,
It doesn't matter in the end.

[snapej]

Racism
Racism is bad
it makes them sad
trying to put them down
it makes them frown
always getting hurt
now it keeps them alert
always getting pains
doesn't mean they're different
doesn't mean you can treat them another way
why do people do this?
it's not right

[snapej]

~*~ Bullying ~*~

Bullying is wrong and not proper to do
it's our job as students to follow through

Some people think bullying is right
but we all know it's not cool to fight

So when you see someone in the hall
be polite and kind and say hi to all

When you see someone who may be in fear
tell them it's ok and lend them your ear

School is difficult and tough with your peers
we all need good friends to get through these years

I think Birchwood could be a bully-free place
if all the students could work together and keep a smile on their face

[snapej]

I hate the way you laugh at me, the way you point and stare.
I hate the way you talk about me as if I wasn't even there.

I hate the way you judge me too before you even know,
I like the same things you do, I like the sun and snow.

I hate the way you judge me because of what I wear.
I hate the way you make fun of my socks, and hair.

I hate the way you make fun of me because my skin is different than yours.
It's not my fault I can't go buy new skin at any of the stores.

I hate the way you threaten me to never say a peep.
You have no idea how many nights I've cried myself to sleep.

I hate the way it makes you feel all cheery and bright,
To do and say things that just are not right.

I hate the way you beat on me the way you kick and punch.
I have no idea why you feel you should be part of this mean bunch.

I hate the way that you can't see what your bullying can do.
Have you not seen articles of students taking their own lives because of people like you.

I hate that you think that I'm not as good as you,
but I want you to know that I'm just as good if not better too!

Smart and Proud

I am a guy, smart and proud.
I may not be buff like the new Californian Gov.
Maybe that's why I get picked on at school,
by all them bullies who think I'm not cool.
That's the problem with these kids today,
Thinking they have the right to say, stupid,ugly and no manners like,
HEY GUY instead of May I?
Why can't they smarten the heck up!

[snapej]

~DON'T MAKE FUN OF ME~

Beautiful and popular
two things I am not
why do we go by
who's cool and who's not?

I am just as nice
and just as kind you can see
but the world has chosen
to punish me.

Now I have pimples and braces
and glasses to boot
I'm a bit over weight
and I ain't that cute!

I'm ok with who I am
why can't you be?
Ever since grade seven
you've been picking on me.

We're all the same inside
or haven't you heard
I want this all to stop
but I can't say a word.

Ok this is enough
I'm afraid to go to school
and I am always questioning
what will make me cool?

I won't stoop to your level
I have too much pride
I would never pick on someone
because of their size!

I'll be alright
High School is almost over
then you'll move on
and this will all be over.

But until then
why can't you see
The person inside
Instead of harrassing me?

[snapej]

We Were the People

We were the people who tormented and teased
Left marks worse than bruises or any of these
We were the people who didn't have hearts
We made you suffer right from the start
We were the people who laughed at you
We alienated and tormented you too
We called you names and we made fun
You wanted to hide, you wanted to run
We put you down, we hurt you so-
The wounds went deeper than we'll ever know
In frustration you cried, in anger you screamed
No hope for the future, you no longer dreamed
We were the people who went too far
Our cruel words leaving much more than scars
Today, however everything's changed
Our lives are being rearranged
Today we watch without a sound
As they lower a casket into snow covered ground
-We are the ones suffering now
What we least expected had come to pass
It came in a blur, it happened so fast
Our apologies seem so long overdue
This isn't what we wanted to happen to you
In reality this happens every day
Young lives needlessly being taken away
Next time think twice about the words you choose
You have everything to gain, nothing to

[snapej]

Why, Mommy?

Mommy, why did you say that
to that nice man on the bus?
He may look kind of different
But he's a human just like us.

Mommy, it wasn't very nice
to call him a dirty name
His skin color is somewhat darker
But he's a person just the same

Please don't judge them on the outside, Mommy
They're just humans too.
Judge as you'd want to be judged
At least I won't judge them like you.

[snapej]

What's Fair?

I know I'm probably not allowed
To hang out with your "cool" crowd
I have a different color skin
You have no idea where I've been.

I come from somewhere where there's war
Everybody there is poor
I am lucky to be here
Even if I'm facing fear.

You call me names
You ruin my games
I have feelings too, you know
Even if they do not show.

What you do is not fair
But you still seem not to care
I fear the day it becomes worse
When you do more than yell and curse

[snapej]

my school says they wont tolirate bullying when it happens 2 me they get a det and come and do more and more

All Alone

The little boy stands all alone,
His life is shattered like a broken bone.
He watches everyone pass him by,
Not a word is spoken, not even a single hi.

The boy never had any friends,
He just wishes his life would end.
He has dealt with this all his life,
Doesn't even get to sleep at night.

The other boys pick on him at school,
If only everyone else knew.
The teachers don't even give a care,
It's as if the boy isn't even there.

He gets thrown up against walls,
And there's noone there that he can call.
All he can do is get up and walk away,
And wait for the same thing the next day.

Just because he has different color skin,
Doesn't mean he should give in.
Yes, he is a different race,
But that doesn't change the look on his face

[snapej]

I wish there was another world with no bullying
I wish there was a world with no racism
no put downs, no shoot -outs, no name calling, no bullying ,
Peace would be whats it's known for; Peace and Harmony
Where everyone could hold hands with a happy heart
Where the sun would shine bright, the clouds big.

People would think no differently because they were a
different religion, race, colour, anything
Everyone would comfort each other when they were sad or angry.

Some people would say I am crazy, but really this is what I would truly like
Everyone has been made fun of or teased, hurt by someone in their life
'Might be to your face,'might be behind your back
But think of how someone's life could have changed because YOU stopped it.

The other world would thank us because we made their world for them, their perfect
world where there are beautiful sunsets, waterfalls, no racism or discrimination of any kind.
You might think I'm crazy and you might think I'm nuts
but this other world would be worth more than a million bucks!
