Tell me how quick it takes

We must stand together now

Tell me how quick it takes

Negativity to rub off someone else

Tell me how quick it takes

Someone to suffer low self esteem

When bullied

Tell me how quick it takes

Someone to take their life away

Because of a word that

Was used as a weapon not a shield

Tell me how quick it takes

Someone to believe in these lies

And drop out of school

Tell me how quick it takes

To realize that we have never

Been taught to love ourselves at schools

How

Grades are dropping because of

Bullying –

Verbally and physically

Teasing, pushing, or making

Fun of someone until they no

Longer want to exist.

And many of us agree that

War will not get this to stop

Only love will

Love will prevail

Tell me, because in the end

We are all just little people

Hopelessly craving for each

Other's attention and love

We are human beings made

To sense loving touch, see

Caring eyes, breath this life

Every single day, make someone's

Day with the most beautiful words

That can change their lives

Words given to us to change

Each other for the better as

A shield, comfort, love, and compassion

You see, we are born to be good

And we can practice to be so

Until it becomes us all

Now

Tell me how quick it takes

Positivity to influence others

And never replace that smile

On their faces

Tell me how quick it takes

To boost someone's

Self esteem by making them

Feel special

With a smile, compliment, and

Kind words

Tell me how quick it takes

To make just a big difference

By giving a meaning to this

Life and stopping one

From not ending their life

By stopping them from ending

And reminding them for living

Because without them we are

Nothing

Tell me how quick it takes

To realize that a bully is

Suffering with themselves

So they are putting it

On others

Look, you can live in

This world with love

And forgiveness,

Self – acceptance,

Because you have so much

More inside you that

You have never known

Before, you have magic

Inside..

And you can be this way

Instead of living in fear

And regret for the rest

Of you life, you can be good

Again its never too late

Think about it, is this

How you want you kids to be?

Is this how you mom wanted you to be?

At least she gave you birth..
