A poem about bullying
YOLO

It means,
You only live once.

It means,
Life's too short,

It means,
Embrace it while you can,

You use it,
As an excuse to drink.

You use it,
As an excuse to 'sleep around',

You use it,
Wrongly

I use it,
As a reason to get good grades

I use it,
So I end up with a good job,

I use it,
So I have the best quality of life possible,

High School
Can be crap for me, because of you,

It's crap for you
Because you misunderstand its purpose,

Make the wrong choices now,
And you'll regret it later.

You can try,
To put me down,

For a minute,
It's gonna' sting,

But I will,
Rise above your comments,

And know,
Your problems are nothing to do with me.
