I Remember You
Do you remember me?
 I'm the girl
 From eighth grade
 That you threw a bottle
 Of glitter at
 And then videotaped it
 For Facebook.
 
 Do you remember me?
 I'm the girl
 From fifth grade
 That you threw wood chips at
 To see if you could
 Make me bleed.
 
 Do you remember me?
 I'm the girl
 From third grade
 That you pushed
 Off the balance beam
 To see how much
 I would cry.
 
 Do you remember me?
 I'm the girl
 From first grade
 That you punched
 In the stomach
 By way of greeting.
 
 Do you remember me?
 I'm the girl
 From kindergarten
 That you never spoke to
 Just because I'm
 A little different.
 
 Do you remember me?
 I'm the girl
 From preschool
 That you threw
 A plastic cup at
 Because I preferred
 To play away from you.
 
 Do you remember me?
 I don't think you do.
 I think I was just one
 Of a hundred others
 You treated that way.
 But I remember you.

Everything I wrote here happened to me, except getting punched in the stomach in first grade. That happened to my sister. I figured it was a good example, though, so I put it in.
Never bully anyone. They don't deserve it, no matter what you think of them. And even if you forget you ever touched them, or even that you ever knew them, they will remember. And it will change them.
