Escape From Bullying Poem

All my life, I have been bullied by the same people. I have been beaten up, mugged and called names. I have resorted to writing down my feelings. I feel people need to know exactly what I've been through.

I cry myself to sleep at night
Just wishing it would stop.
Maybe tomorrow it will cease.
Then again, maybe not.

You push me and you poke me.
You call me hurtful names.
To me, it's like a prison.
To you, it's fun and games.

Your heart is made of ice,
But it doesn't even deserve that.
Mine was once a rainbow,
But you have moulded it to darkest black.

I hate you; I hate everyone.
There is no one I can trust.
Are you proud of what you've done?
You've turned my soul into dust.

I wish there were a door I could open,
A simple path I could tread.
I don't want to be stuck here forever
In this endless spiral of dread.

Same here! This poem and description relates to me when I was bullied for being German. And maybe because I also suffered from rheumatiod arthrities on top of that. I had freinds in high school, but they never really spoke to me or allowed me to join in. They ignored my when I tried to speak to them. They never asked if I would like to come to meet them in cinemas. Some teachers humiliated me because I don't read like the others.

Imagine your own friends backstabbing you, calling you names, beating you up, and telling you how much you don't deserve to love, to live. I've been in that situation before, and let me tell you, ignore them no matter how much it hurts. You're prefect and beautiful and brave, no need to cut, no need to think of suicide. Just so you know, they're jealous of you. They're jealous that you have everything. You deserve to be loved. Ignore them. They have no good reason to bully, but take your time to talk to them before jumping into conclusions. They might have a bad past. Stay save everyone.

This reminds me so much of me right now. I’ve just gotten beaten up and hurt. I cry myself to sleep after cutting, but I love my best friends, and I love how I smile!

Bullying has caused so much damage over the years. It has caused depression and suicides. To bully is to show cowardice.

This reminds me of when I was in 5th grade. They always bulled me. They also tried to slap me, but all of a sudden, I recovered and became stronger. When I was young, I had a lot of friends, but they were not real and true friends. But after I was in high school, I got my few but true friends. They always help me. They always care for me.

This is my life in a nutshell. People push me and try to break me. But, I will not let them see all the pain they are causing me.

I have been bullied too. One time someone pushed so hard that I had marks all over me, and my friends just at there and made fun of me, so I do not have real friends. I am in 6th grade, and the higher the grade, it seems like the worse it is becoming.
