"Live. Laugh. Love"


Stop the taunting,
Pause the insults,
Rewind your pitiful life,
And move forward into reality,

High school isn't kindergarten,
Where taunting means you like 'em,
It means you drop the s***,
And grow up,

Should I spell it out?
Write it down?
Or perhaps give you some common sense,

Whatever the resolution,
There is no solution,
Despite the maturity,
There is always ignorance,
This is permanently embedded in society,

Nothing can stop the torments,
But something can be done,

Overlook the immature imbeciles,
Increase the peace,
And destroy the hate,

People were not made to be put down,
Or put on a pedestal,
But to be treated in a manner of respect,

It's not that hard.


The author's comments:
I'm so tired of being put down because of how skinny I am or because I haven't done half the things no one else have done, and I'm pretty sure almost every teenager has felt that way. High school is full of so many mazes and obstacles that sometimes, you need a little encouragement.
