How could you do this to another person?

How could you do this to another person?
Hurting, tearing, breaking their hearts.
Silence wont help, you'll worsen.
Laughing at what they do, breaks a person apart.
People all around the world face ridicule,
why contribute to that?
Remember, if you talk smack
it will always come back.
Go on, Go.
Give them that nudge.
Give them a hug.
If you accept them, people wont misjudge.
Instead of tears, give laughter. you will find its like a drug.
Everything it always isn't so easy,
but think of how happy the person would be...
just how a measly
act of kindness will make you see
that peace and hope
won't be unreachable in the future.
You dont need to be the pope
to give a simple smile, to be a simple suitor.
So please, for everyone,
theres no need to satirize
no need for broken souls.
Making a friend will repair the heart of another.
Everyone should respect eachother.
If you find it you just cant. Cant be polite,
just think. Dont speak.
Inside of us all we have a light
waiting for the shine to leak.

Alot of people,(not just in school, but everywere)really dont know how ripping on someone can break a person. It never happend to me personally, but to a close friend. It was just a small thing like "your nose is too big." I mean, its nothing of a major statment, but it can really hurt some people. You never know how a person can react to a bad situation, and i plan not to find out. Just please, think about others. Thank you (:

I agree to what you're saying completely! Little things hurt a whole lot, and some people just don't realize that. Great poem, with great meaning. I love it, keep writing!

Your Amazing don't give in or give up on anything.
