Me vs. Boys & Girls
Your words,
They hurt.
I am a girl,
but I dont flirt.
They wear skirts,
I wear shorts.
I hate shopping,
They crave for more.
Make-up,
I cannot stand.
By hearing this,
You'd think I`m a man.
No one knows exactly where I fit,
All I can do is watch and sit.
I dont like glitter or pink,
I watch these people,
They flirt and wink.
Honestly they disgust me.
To bad no one can see,
The way they hurt and abuse me.
"I`m so sorry."
Is what they say,
But do they really no the pain I go threw each day?
The boys in school treat me in a different, yet similar, way.
They make me feel miserable,
Yes, each day.
They call me an "It"
But I dont care,
Pitching a fight,
I wouldnt dare.
How am I supposed to handle this?
I`ve handled it for years,
And almost called it quits.
But soon,
I told.
Yes, I did.
I spoke up and told,
What I had been threw,
As a kid.

They disliked me, hated me, cursed at me, abused me, etc.
But here I am. I probably would`ve been gone a long time ago if I hadnt spoken up and told someone.
Start with your parents or your school teacher.
Or maybe, if severe, the police.
You can stop that from ever happening to you, if you use one magic word to start your conversation: Bullying
