Stop Bullying
I am the bystander who now takes action,
I wonder why the bully can’t resist the urge to bully,
I hear the silent plea’s of the bullied,
I see the same look that was on my face when it was my turn,
I want others to be the difference and not just me,
I am the bystander who had a change of heart.
I pretend that others will take action even though I know sometimes they won't,
I feel the pain of the ones being bullied because I have been there,
I touch the pain they get and help them through it,
I worry for those who weren’t stood up for,
I cry when I am too scared to stand up for somebody,
I am the bystander who cares for others.
I understand that the bullied can’t do anything about it,
I say that more people should stand up against bullying,
I dream that there is a world without bullies,
I try to stand up for everybody being bullied,
I hope that if I can’t help them they don’t suffer too much,
I am the change everybody being bullied needs.
I am the bystander who doesn’t just stand there.Â

Wow Ducksy! What a fabulous and powerful write. I think we all have been there at some point. Been bullied, been a bystander, been part of the problem. It is a neverending cycle, if we dont make changes. And your poem highlights that so very well. I found it fantastic, how you put emphasis on standing up for people, protecting others and caring for others, when they can not do themselves. Welcome to the Cosmos! I hope you enjoy it here.
thank you for shining a needed light! welcome to Cosmo!....................Jim
