Doubt whom you will, but never yourself


Bully is a term used too loosely

Everything nowadays can be related to bullying

Everyone is a bully, every action is a form of bullying

Bullying is real, however it is sometimes used as an excuse

That is what irritates me

Some people out there are bullied to the point of suicide

Some people are bullied to the point of self-hate

Bullying like that is ignored on a daily basis by issues dealing nothing with bullying, rather using the term bullying

There are endless talks about stopping bullying

However it takes action to do something, to cause a change

So let's make a change

That girl who gave you the stink eye

Thats not bullying

That is a negative opinion

That boy who taunts you in school and over the internet who told you to kill yourself

That is bullying

That needs to be dealt with

Because its people like that who grow up to do serious damage

It all starts with a thought, a decision

What even is bullying?

What is a bully?

Can you define it?

Nor can I

There are so many different definitions that it makes me wonder

We cannot accurately describe exactly what a bully is and does

But we can accurately pick out a bully among the crowd

It's called instinct, it's a vibe

You know one when you see one

The power is in your hands, our hands, to stop bullying

We can do this

We know what it looks like

We have all experienced it

So what do you say we put this demon to rest?
