The "Traumatic Event"
  They bullied him for seven years
  He would just sit there waiting
  Waiting for the last blow
  That day
  He didn't wait
  He had had enough
  He was the Angel of Death
  He stood up
  Got pushed down again
  But he stood up again
  Staying up
  His eyes turned darker
  When his fist came in contact with his tormentors
  He had enough humanity
  To say a word
  A word he had never heard
  A word that gave the power
  Of something vital
  A head start
  The word?
  You must ask was
  "Run"
  A simple word creating such fear
  They ran
  Oh, yeah they ran alright
  What a sight
  The tormentors finally running away in fear
  Of the tormented
  A great person
  Once told a great quote
  "We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented."
  Oh, the tormented didn't stay silent this time
  And he never will again
  They say he sounded like a
  Demon
  They called him
  Physco
  He followed after them
  His main focus only on one
  The one responsible for the whole thing
  He caught him
  He kicked
  Punched
  Head butted
  Until, finally he was satisfied
  With what he had done
  He stepped back
  Let out a weak laugh
  And collapsed
  And for the tormentor?
  He went the emergency room
  And the rest is history
  Now
  It's just the
  "Traumatic Event"
