The Bully

by Karl Wild GG23   Nov 15, 2006


He stands up covered in mud
Water fills his eyes
He tries to fight the tears
But can't hold back and cries

The Bully laughs and walks away
Because his job here is done
He's embarrassed the boy and made him cry
Tuck his tail between his legs and run

For the boy this is nothing new
It's just another day
The Bully always gets him
Either at school or on the way

The Bully takes the boys backpack
And throws his books around
Tells him he's a loser who doesn't deserve to live
And pushes him to the ground

The boy just takes his beating
As other kids watch eagerly
The boy picks up his glasses
Puts them back on so he can see

The Bully smacks them off again
And crushes them with his shoe
And tells the boy "you don't want to see
What I'm about to do to you"

As the crowd watches
Why won't anyone help?
The Bully kicks him while he's down
The boy lets out a yelp

The bully stops to go to school
Because he's almost late
Tells the boy this isn't over
Oh no you just wait

At school the boy tells his teacher
And the teacher says "OK"
"Are you sure he broke your glasses
Or did you just lose them on the way"

"No I'm sure he broke them
He stomped them with his shoe"
Teacher says "well without proof
There's really nothing I can do"

The boy rushes to the bathroom
To cry his pain away
But this is nothing new
This is just another day

    really really powerful, it screamed at me, maybe because I wear glasses. lol That was well written , and powerfully put, the last two stazas were also perfect, and so strong. It ended well, and it is sad but true. The emtion was really really amazing, and the word choice blew me away. I would have to say that this is my favorite poem by you. 5/5 although if I could I would give you more.
