To the girl who bullied me in school,
I sat quietly,
When you pulled my hair.
I sat quietly,
When you tore my notebooks.
I sat quietly,
When you took away all my friends.
I even sat quietly,
When you humiliated me– afraid that I would anger you, the queen bee.
To the girl who bullied me in school,
Even though I didn’t react,
There were always tears trying to escape my eyes,
Always screams I tried to withhold,
Always an to urge to stop you, shout at you, that I controlled.
(And that was my biggest mistake.)
To the girl who bullied me in school,
I still have scars from the time I tried to self-harm.
I still have nightmares and cuts on my arms.
Why did you do all that? Just because I was fat?
I still have eating disorders,
All thanks to you.
To the girl who bullied me in school,
I write this letter today, to you.
To tell you it wasn’t okay
What you did to me and made me go through.
Bullying is wrong; it doesn’t make you look strong.
Stop bullying others just for your fun.
Maybe we are ugly, maybe we are fat,
But we are much better human beings than you,
I can assure you that.
