Title:
Bully
She was always the one they picked on and they didn't have a clue that she cried herself to sleep at night from their cruel words on cue She tried to keep it from her folks as she didn't want them upset but she couldn't find it to forgive them and she certainly could not forget She dreaded going to school at times sad, because she was really quite clever but she found the courage to stand up to them knowing it was now or never She changed from mousey quiet became determined overnight that if anyone else should cross her path She'd be putting up a fight So, from that day no-one troubled her twice they simply moved out of her way she developed a grudge of bitterness and 'revenge is sweet' she'd say
She lost her belief in everyone there was no-one that she would trust she'd never had anyone to love her Just meaningless moments of lust Years and years went by like this until a bouncer spoke he told her she was 'unapproachable' - this coming from a huge big bloke He said that she looked mad always and had an att-i-tude and that no-one wanted to speak to her 'cause she was always in a mood She thought about what he had said his words had made an impact She decided that it was time to change and the attitude was sacked Her frown became a smile she opened up her heart she began at last to live her life and have a fresh new start Years and years have passed by since and she's happier than ever because now she is 'approachable' but a pushover - never!
