Bullies Bullies shouldn't prosper, Bullies shouldn't win, Do they realise the pain they cause as they stand and grin? Picking on the weak ones, some half of their size, If a victim stood up to them, they'd get a big surprise, You have a fear of going to school or fear of going to work, Victims lives are being ruined while the perpetrators smirk You sneak out of the school and the lonely streets you roam You pray to God that they don't follow you home You lay in your bedroom both day and night Tears streaming and in pain, no-one cares about your plight You endure being held down, feeling blows dealt to your head But no-one cares to intervene, so they stand and watch instead Bruised and battered and terrified after each attack Then later on in life the scars are still present on your back PTSD and night terrors soon become the norm The very rare restful night is the calm before the storm Bullying can continue later on in life A helpless victim at the mercy Of a husband or a wife Bullies think they are invincible When to a victim they attach But bide your time and one day They will meet their match
