Her father comes home every day
He comes home happy
He puts an arm around her
Asks about her day
He loves her
Still she bullies me
Says mean things
For no reason
She is pixie small and very cute
But so nasty!
The guys like her
And I don't understand...
Why my little brother lets her claim him
Why her words toward me are like venom
I was always nice
I'm not the one who stole her boyfriend
I'm not the one who yells at her
Trying to be her friend
Backfired
God, grant me the serenity...
strength...
courage...
To fight back
To protect myself
I don't want a mishonest apology
I want to be left alone

This girl used to bully me in the 8th grade and I could not understand why. What did I ever do to her?
