You push him,
Tease him,
Mock him,
yet, he doesn't seem to mind
as he just skips along joyously
pushing the words aside
to be remembered at some other time
When he is ready to take the pain
the miserable, gruesome pain
that YOU will have caused.
YOU become the heart of the meaningless fire
scorching his mind and soul
his sanity, burning away
leading him to paranoia
curled up in a ball
Yet, when his body is smoldering
you push the inferno more
until he is a shell
containing a lonely boy
his joyful self turned to ash
BUT
every fire takes a while to spread
burns slowly
And if it is stopped quickly
Less damage will be done
And the burns can be healed.

SO HEAL THEM.

Words are like water that can put out any fire.

Poems like these are hard for me because I was bullied. I know what it feels like to be under someone's thumb, to be smacked around like a fly, to have my self respect ripped from me. Thanks for submitting it. I can feel the pain in the words.
