Some people
pelt me with ice cubes,
filled with harsh
words.
As soon as they hit me,
I want to
fall
and cry,
from the cold,
from the pain.
I have a name,
but
the more
I get pelted
with ice cubes,
the faster my name
fades away.

The author's comments:
I have been called so many names and after hearing them all the time, I started to believe them. That was when I started to hide myself. I didn't want to be a target anymore. I stopped being so social and I basically let the bullies get to me which is something NO ONE should do.
