Being Different

For people that feel its over because they are being bullied…I know its long but it may help. Please read and let me no what you think!
Everyday I look at the sky
Stare for ages and wonder why
Why all these things happen to me
I’m not that different look and see
The kids at school are all the same
They take the piss but I get the blame
They think there funny but they don’t know
How much I hurt as I don’t show
Then at home it isn’t any better
So I sit on the floor writing my suicide letter
And block out everyone in my house
I cant here nothing not even a mouse
This is where death pips life just by the skin
So I cut my wrists with a safety pin
What a stupid thing to do at my age
But you’ll understand why I did it once you read this page
The reason I did was plain to see
I did it coz everyone picked on me
It was stupid and now I know
How life is so precious even when you are low
There ARE people to talk to however they try
To comfort and hug you when you cry
People like teachers and helpers too
They are here to listen just for YOU
Everyday I sit in the sky
Ask myself and wonder why?
Why I did it to myself
I was so young and in good health
NEVER let the bullies know they have won
As you might regret something you wish you hadn’t done
From this poem is a very important rule
Just because you’re different doesn’t mean you are not cool
So hold your head high
Don’t sit there and wonder why
Everyone is different in there own way
So keep your strength and never give in
You have the will power from within
To fight the bullies whatever they say
Think about it why should YOU pay?
