Bullying Poem. (A reflection to the discussion we had in class about bullying.)

Strong people fight with their muscles and guns.
Weak ones only run.
Smart ones fight with their brain.
Romantic people kiss in rain.
Bullied people get all the pain, their freedom is caught between the chains.
They jumped off bridges.
Their veins bled.
They gave away their lives, and left enormous threats.
Does is matter they were lesb**n or g*y?
Stop being a predator that's haunting for a prey.


Why do we bully?
Can't we think carefully?
Before you speak, before you act.
Remember, you have big impact.
Small words can turn into the biggest fears.
When respect appears, the pain disappears.
Don't be afraid. Drop those tears, the pain might fade.
I meant it WILL fade, just be patient, be strong like an FBI agent!
It will get better, if we work together.

Some wrote letters.
Some gave away their life, and left no reasons.
Those dry seasons, when life gets tough.
Scream with the loudest voice. THIS IS ENOUGH!
Don't hurt me, i am not as tough.
They have a life.
Does it matter if she was a female and had a wife?
They're still the same, stop making a difference, they're not insane.
They chose they're life like you did.
Some revealed, and some hid in dark jars and tightened the lid.

Now, respect every youth, younger or older, different of the same as you.
Everyone has the right to be happy and feel free.
We all should agree.

  1. Oh my gosh Haneen, you are an AMAZING writer! I really liked the third stanza, especially the line "Some revealed, and some hid in dark jars and tightened the lid."
    Great job!
