Lies Within the Criminal Mind
Every contact is a deal with the devil
Gazing onto those scorching eyes, it deems fury
My heart remains pulverized, yet alone being fragile
What have I done to deserve this misery?
The ground is my only friend
For seizing my defenseless body
My walls are trampled on, crushing it destructively
Nothing entertains than the pure sight of agony
Mischievous sneer on the fiend's features
Reluctantly took it forbidding
Hatred tension alerts my senses
Thinking it shouldn't be filled with cruelty
Little did they know I'm a fighter
Who's ready to launch, simply locking the target
Though the enemy wouldn't apprehend
When I've dropped the bullet
Completely unaware heaven observes the criminal
Everytime he lurks in darkness
Thinking that one day, one's mind will soon experience regret
But we all should comprehend God forgives and forget

I wrote this poem back when I was in eighth grade. I must admit, I was a victim of bullying. Not specifying exactly what, but during that time, I was devastated.
I was depressed and sad, and I had no one there for me. My motivation was set to finish middle school with flying colors. By this, I'm showing all the people who bullied me that I can rise with my own two feet.
I am currently a junior in high school, and everytime I look back on memories, I'd just laugh. I thank them because they made me stronger. From another perspective, I realized that life isn't about peaches and cream, one must set a goal, go through some obstacles... and win. The only way to go now is up.
