The boy you pushed down the stairs?
Had lost his mother cause of a similar dare.
The girl you called fat in class?
Hasn't eaten anything, save water, just a glass.
That girl,for being single every day you tease?
Wears her heart out, on her sleeve.
The kid you called stupid two minutes back?
Went home, studied all night, now it's just sleep that he does lack.
The old man you thought was useless, the one down the lane?
Cleans up after you,so you may feel no pain.
The man you called a pervert, outside the train station?
Lost his daughter to some cruel man's molestation.
The woman you pushed down, on the flight?
Was to deliver her first child that very night.
The girl you called a bad artist,the day before?
Her skin the canvas, a blade the pencil, her life the stencil.
Each scar left an everlasting mark, no one could decipher,
But she won't tell what for.
The little girl you punched in the stomach yesterday?
Had one kidney taken away.
To that boy, "I Hate You", you had said?
Was thinking about it,had an accident, he's on his deathbed.
Don't hate, they possess stories untold,
Spread some love, and they might unfold,
All the Unknown Battles, they fight until they're old.
Oh! If you had only just known....
