They said I am skinny,

They said I am a twig.

So I ate more than I could but couldn't take it.

So I stood, for my myself,

I said I don't care what you say 

I'm happy in this way

They called me names.

 

They said I am fatty 

they said I am chubby 

So I stopped eating 

So I stood because I couldn't take it anymore,

I said I don't care what you say 

I'm happy in this way 

They called me names.

 

They said I am a terrorist 

They laughed at me

I cried 

but then I stopped,

raised my voice 

said it's my choice 

so I stood 

I said I don't care what you say 

I am happy this way 

They called me names.

 

They said we couldn't fight back 

Because we weren't strong 

So we stood together to show how strong we are,

because

We are not victims

We are survivors

We will fight you. 


The author's comments:

People are bullied for many reasons, for what they are they are and for what they are not, either they have something or they don't. Woefully there are many reasons. The only thing we can do now to stop bullying give the survivors support and stand up for the people who are bullied.
