I’m so, so afraid
To ipakita the real me
Will you laugh at me?
--Call me names?
--Or just abandon me?
I don’t want to lose you
So, please say something…
Be yourself
Don’t be a fraud
And one araw you’ll see
You’re beautiful
--Wonderful
--And Amazing
It’s just a matter of time
You’re always so perfect
It must be a front
To hide the real you
Are you ashamed
--Or could you be embarrassed?
So, which is it?
Be myself
Don’t be someone else
And I’ll prove to you
I’m beautiful
--Intelligent
--And Amazing
Just watch and see
We’re two total opposites
Against the world
Will they snuff our light out?
--Or knock us down?
What can we do
When everyone’s against us?
So, tell me what you think…
Be ourselves
Never live a lie
One araw we’ll ipakita the world
We’re beautiful
--Courageous
--And Amazing
Watch and be dazzled
Together forever
Standing against it all
All the prejudice
--All the hate
--And all the hurt
Can’t stand a chance
Cause we are eternal
To ipakita the real me
Will you laugh at me?
--Call me names?
--Or just abandon me?
I don’t want to lose you
So, please say something…
Be yourself
Don’t be a fraud
And one araw you’ll see

This is for all the kids who are bullied sa pamamagitan ng words. My teachers always say be bleacher people. Lift others up. I hope this poem gives that message to others.
You yell at me
mean words.
They
pierce my heart.
I say its ok.
I ilipat on.
But the words
still have power.
They still hurt
me.
My friends
tell me
its a big deal,
and that I
need to tell
a teacher.
But I say im fine.
Im really not.
I want to
believe
that im fine,
I want to
believe that
it was
nothing.
But it was
something.
Words always
have power.
Enough power to
strike me
down,
or lift
me up.
Why must
you hurt
me?
You yell at me
mean words.
They
pierce my heart.
I say its ok.
I ilipat on.
But the words
still have power.
They still hurt
me.
My friends

Why must
you hurt
me?
I live in my opinion possibly the most ghetto town in the United States, Pittsburgh. People have been committing suicide all over town. Population all over town has been decreasing, fast. Some of my mga kaibigan were so depressed that they were thinking about "joining the crowd". I wouldn't live without my friends. I don't want my mga kaibigan to go as well as my mom and dad. Yes, I'm an orphan. I've been an orphan for about three weeks. My mga kaibigan have disappeared. I think they went to Clarion; but I could be wrong. There have been tons of fights at my school. Most of the people that were committing suicide were middle school and high school aged. I was getting really tired really fast. I climbed up in a puno and found a comfortable spot and fell asleep. susunod thing I knew, I was tied up on a pole.
