Fight

I used to be tall
Ready to fight at any moment
Now I am small
Prepared to run away at any second

I used to be an upstander, a protector
Now I am being crushed against the wall
In the hall

In the school, IĀ used to love,
but, now I hate, because of all the bullies
I used to yell
“STOP”
To protect others
Now I do nothing to
Protect myself
I used to have courage
To be a fighter
To stand up
Now I wait
And I wait
And I wait
For something to happen to
Make me ready to STAND up
Now I think and I think and
I think and I decide
That tomorrow
When I open the
Door to school
I will FIGHT
