One Mistake to Lose it all

by Miss Behaving   Nov 10, 2007


Do you see him there, lying on the ground?
The bully pushing and shoving him down
Yelling and shouting are the only sounds
Others ignore the fight only to frown

How can they walk away from that kid?
Are they scared to get involved in the fight?
Scared because of all the things the bully did?
Why don't they stand up for what's right?

The bully leaves the boy there on the floor
The boy gets up, blood coming out his nose
He walks back home and slams the front door
But there is no one in the house to know

The nasty things that happened at school
He is all alone and now it is his turn
To show him who can break the rules
Thinking he will make the bully learn

From his mistakes, the boy is losing his mind
Going into his father's room finding his gun
The father thought the boy wouldn't find
But he was wrong, now everyone will run

The boy goes back to his school
Walking though the back door
Finding the bully, acting a fool
Beating another kid on the floor

"Yo, Punk!" Yelled the boy standing next to the him
Takes out the gun and aimed it at the bully's head
The bully thought it was a toy, the light was too dim
He stood up to throw a punch at the boy's head

A fire was shot, blood stained on the floor
The boy is now locked behind prison doors
