Karma
Everybody has a story behind the face they show the world
Events can happen in this life which can devastate a boy or girl
We are able to feel such happiness and joy on certain days
Other times we feel life can't get any worse when darkness stays
Don't ever judge someone thinking that it's cool
In the end it's you who's judged and made to be the fool
You don't know how many tears were shed from those sad eyes
While hiding behind a shy smile formed to only stifle their cries
Feeling so alone in a world we find so cruel
Sinking in and drowning in your own sorrowful pool
A boy who can't look up in fear of being hurt
The bullies grabbing at his hair and ripping his new shirt
A girl who's called names and treated with no respect
Their lack of spirit caused by pure neglect and it's effect
Think about feelings before saying words to hurt someone
In another life, you may come back, as the damaged one.

I enjoy your writings. Continue to share your wisdom and help parents/adults to be better leaders!
Great poem! I like the way you rhymed respect with neglect and effect.
I have been there. It takes a very strong person to over come those things. It created my passion for others.
