Standing Up

People always pick on me
I just ignore them
I just let them be

People either go in my face
Or they just call me names
I try to go away from them
But I just can’t go on with my life…

I would tell someone,
But the consequences for me would
Either be me getting picked on
Or getting humiliated

One day I just couldn’t take it anymore…
I felt like- like I was BURNING inside
Because of the fact that I was getting bullied
Almost my whole life!

I know I had to Stand Up to the bully.
I didn’t know how to- well at first…
When I finally stood up to the bully,
I realized that hiding your feelings
To something like this will get you nowhere…

Standing Up to the bully changes people!
After you Stand Up, you’ll have confidence!
Having confidence, self-esteem, and believing in yourself
Will change your life~
