"Write a poem about your experiences being bullied, and have fun!"
Okay, I'm a bit of a masochist, so I'll be back.

like I said, I'm a bit of a masochist, so a masochistic poem is what your going to get. With maybe, a romantic twist.

No Retreat No Surrender, Lightning And Thunder
(a true story)
Five against one
But I didn't run
They wanted money
But I had none
They claimed I stole their quarter
I never knew them in my life
They followed me across the street
They wanted to pick a fight
And so they did
Like the cowards they are
They are confident in their numbers
Alone, they are weak
But five against one, they are thunder
But I no retreat
I no surrender
They kicked, they punched
But nothing landed
They wanted to beat me to a pulp
But I had a supernatural advantage
I was lucky
Adults drove by
Looking but not helping
I felt the fear in their eyes
As they took sides, with my aggressors
And so the onslaughts continued
Their anger and confusion accrued
They couldn't fathom why
They couldn't win against just one dude
I could see the apprehension in their pupils
And their once loud roars become simple
I moved, I floated, I parried every attempt
They ganged up on me and surrounded me like a fence
But I no retreat
I no surrender
And I was rescued by a yellow bus driver
I went home
And never said a word to my parents
But I finally broke down and cried
It was my first time experiencing real hate and violence
And my heart broke
They never bullied me again
No one bullies me
I no retreat
I no surrender
And now after mastering my martial art
I am the lightning, I am the thunder

I am the result of bullying
The epitome of self destruction
From day one, I’ve been seeking
A way to erase the abduction
I remember the first time it happened to me
After my skirt ripped on the slide
The laughter and stares, and the pointing at my chubby knee
I was five, and boy, was I in for a ride
From that day on, I noticed the comments begin
I sucked them in like water
Each one stealing a part of me from within
No one told me different or why I shouldn’t care or bother
Then, one day, in sixth grade, I had a new red outfit on
A hand-me-down, but the day couldn’t have been better
Until, on the way home, that freckled faced redheaded ran by, made fun of me, and then was gone
It was the first time that I felt less of myself, for not being able to stop her
Repeating the hurtful words in my head, I began to imagine myself a freak
Fat, ugly, and trash, I started feeling unworthy of talking to anyone
So I cried in my room and became shy, withdrawn, and meek
For years, I stopped having friends and barely talked to anyone
By high school, I hid from the pain by covering my face with my long hair
I had learned to transfer others comments within and their looks into self-hate
My future looked so dim, I began to not care
I ballooned up to over two hundred fifty pounds and that sealed my fate
Walking against the wall every day and staring in its direction
I tried to avoid eye contact to avoid seeing the stares
Everything that was said to me ended in white noise and deflection
Until I found alcohol and marijuana, the ultimate paranoia of pairs
This led to abuse of a different sort for me
By allowing myself to be used and abused
I now failed to care and threw myself into a pit in a hellish sea
I felt that all I was worthy of was being blackened and bruised
There are still days when I plan to go out in public
But the demons take over, and I drive home without doing my deed
And I just want to hide and remain a helpless alcoholic
There is not much left inside of me from which to feed

one lens of his glasses shattered but still spiderwebbing together.
bruises forming under his eye sockets.
blood curling over his lip, reddening his two front teeth.
the branch was bigger than his arm.
thin lean muscles strained, thin tense fingers pulled and shoulderblades caught the weight;
the dead wooden club swung sharply with all of his body and he stumbled.
when the parents tried to file charges no one could persuade him this was not how it happened.

Stinging Silence
It was never the words they used that hurt.
The cavalier half baked insults they would spurt
From the tainted mouths of the sweetest angels like water on a hot summer's day.
I never cared about the expressions on their faces,
The almost frenzied look in their half dead eyes,
Using unadulterated force as a half baked disguise,
Pushing back against their demons who told them such lies,
Yearning for control in an uncontrollable world,
Wanting to break free and go places...
It was never them that hurt.
It wasn't the bruises, the names or the daily torn shirt,
It wasn't being huddled in a corner covered in dirt,
Praying to the god I no longer believe in,
Asking him "why can't they let me be?"
Until I realised;
It was never about me.
It was laying in my bed in the dark,
Alone with my thoughts,
The silent night ringing,
The realisation of my hypocrisy silently stinging.
I had it better than them,
I would be free.
I was not to be trapped in a place I was not meant to be.
How could I, a girl born with such privilege,
Not my money,
Not my means,
But my mind,
Judge those that the world so fondly pillaged?
I had a mind that I knew in the depths of my soul,
And still do,
That will lead me to the thing that they so desperately fight for,
Control.
I cried for them then,
And I cry for them now.
I give them the sympathy that life wouldn't allow,
And I wish every day that I could speak to them somehow.
But cest la vie,
Life will go on,
And I can only hope that the battle they fight will someday be won.
