/&gt;Wasn't&amp;nbsp;an ordinary kid.&lt;br /&gt;The bushes in the park,&lt;br /&gt;Was where he normally hid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why did he do that?&lt;br /&gt;Why didn't he play?&lt;br /&gt;Why would he go there,&lt;br /&gt;And sit there all day?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nobody knew why.&lt;br /&gt;Nobody cared.&lt;br /&gt;But then came Sarah,&lt;br /&gt;Who was immediatly scared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She first saw him in hiding,&lt;br /&gt;And went right to the spot.&lt;br /&gt;She saw him asleep,&lt;br /&gt;In a messy old cot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"What are you doing?"&lt;br /&gt;She asked him right there.&lt;br /&gt;Why was she talking to him,&lt;br /&gt;Did she even dare?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He woke up right away,&lt;br /&gt;And looked at her with fright.&lt;br /&gt;He wondered why she was here,&lt;br /&gt;In the middle of the night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I'm running away,&lt;br /&gt;I'm hiding from my dad.&lt;br /&gt;It's better to be here,&lt;br /&gt;Than when he's real&amp;nbsp;mad."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sarah began to wonder,&lt;br /&gt;Why anyone would do that.&lt;br /&gt;Sarah sat next to him,&lt;br /&gt;And layed down on the old mat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"What's wrong with your dad?"&lt;br /&gt;Asked Sarah right then.&lt;br /&gt;"You can't run away from home,&lt;br /&gt;You look about ten."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"He gets really mad,&lt;br /&gt;And then he hurts me.&lt;br /&gt;Look at my bruised up&lt;br /&gt;All bandaged knee."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Your daddy did that?"&lt;br /&gt;Sarah asked the boy.&lt;br /&gt;"He shouldn't do that!&lt;br /&gt;It's as if your his toy!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I have no where to go,&lt;br /&gt;I have to stay here.&lt;br /&gt;If he finds me he'll hurt me,"&lt;br /&gt;Said Jimmy with a tear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"You're coming to my house,&lt;br /&gt;My mother will surely like you.&lt;br /&gt;I'll tell her what you said,&lt;br /&gt;And you tell her too."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sarah took Jimmy with her,&lt;br /&gt;And they told her about his dad.&lt;br /&gt;They told her what happens,&lt;br /&gt;Everytime he gets mad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her mother was shocked.&lt;br /&gt;She started to cry.&lt;br /&gt;She looked straight at young Jimmy,&lt;br /&gt;And gave a long sigh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She told him she would help him,&lt;br /&gt;And he was alowd to stay.&lt;br /&gt;This way he would be fed,&lt;br /&gt;And alowd to play.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During that long night,&lt;br /&gt;Sarah's mother picked up the phone.&lt;br /&gt;She called&amp;nbsp;the police,&lt;br /&gt;And spoke in a straight tone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next morning the police came,&lt;br /&gt;And questioned everyone.&lt;br /&gt;They asked all sorts of things,&lt;br /&gt;And they still weren't done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the end of the day,&lt;br /&gt;The police went to Jimmy's house.&lt;br /&gt;They took his dad away,&lt;br /&gt;And locked him up like a mouse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jimmy didn't have to hide,&lt;br /&gt;He could go out and play.&lt;br /&gt;He started to cry,&lt;br /&gt;And asked how long he could stay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sarah's mother said forever.&lt;br /&gt;He didn't need to be upset.&lt;br /&gt;She said it was a good thing,&lt;br /&gt;That Sarah and Jimmy met.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jimmy was never hurt again.&lt;br /&gt;He wasn't ever sad.&lt;br /&gt;He would always remember,&lt;br /&gt;His abusive dad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Child abuse hurts,&lt;br /&gt;End it here.&lt;br /&gt;Children

type='html'>This is my first poem! Tell me what you think!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stop the Bullying&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You knew it was coming,&lt;br /&gt;You saw the pain.&lt;br /&gt;You should've known better,&lt;br /&gt;Than to drive her insane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She came from New York,&lt;br /&gt;A far away place.&lt;br /&gt;She thought life would be good,&lt;br /&gt;Until she saw your face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You told her she was ugly.&lt;br /&gt;You called her lame,&lt;br /&gt;And got all of your friends,&lt;br /&gt;To join in your game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You tripped her when you could,&lt;br /&gt;You made her fall down.&lt;br /&gt;You thought it would be funny,&lt;br /&gt;If she ran out of town.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She would go home and cry,&lt;br /&gt;Her parents would just stare.&lt;br /&gt;They didn't do nothing.&lt;br /&gt;Did they even care?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Without her parents help,&lt;br /&gt;Your game grew stronger.&lt;br /&gt;You started to wish,&lt;br /&gt;You could make fun of her longer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She started to dress fancy,&lt;br /&gt;Hopeing you would like her.&lt;br /&gt;But no you ripped her top,&lt;br /&gt;And she looked like a blur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She would tell the teacher,&lt;br /&gt;And you would pretend cry.&lt;br /&gt;Saying that it never happened,&lt;br /&gt;And that she told a lie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was never a break,&lt;br /&gt;It went on all day.&lt;br /&gt;Nobody knocked for her,&lt;br /&gt;And asked her to play.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your game went on,&lt;br /&gt;Everyone joined in.&lt;br /&gt;But in a few weeks,&lt;br /&gt;You would surely win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She stopped eating,&lt;br /&gt;Thinking she was fat.&lt;br /&gt;You noticed her new thinness,&lt;br /&gt;But still kicked her like a mat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She then&amp;nbsp;tried makeup,&lt;br /&gt;So you would think she was pretty.&lt;br /&gt;Instead you laughed in her face,&lt;br /&gt;And called her a pity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She then picked up scissors,&lt;br /&gt;And cut her golden hair.&lt;br /&gt;Thinking you would like her new hairstyle,&lt;br /&gt;But no, you said she looked like a bear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was never a day,&lt;br /&gt;When you gave her a break.&lt;br /&gt;Then came her birthday party.&lt;br /&gt;And the big birthday cake.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But what did you do?&lt;br /&gt;You told everyone not to go.&lt;br /&gt;You said she wasn't worth it,&lt;br /&gt;And the party would blow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She invited fifty people,&lt;br /&gt;And no one came.&lt;br /&gt;She went in her room crying.&lt;br /&gt;Can't you see you won the game?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then came the Monday,&lt;br /&gt;When she didn't show up to school.&lt;br /&gt;Even when she wasn't there,&lt;br /&gt;You still called her uncool.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She killed herself,&lt;br /&gt;Thinking no one cared.&lt;br /&gt;Maybe if you would've stopped,&lt;br /&gt;She would've been spared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You were told the news,&lt;br /&gt;And inside your heart broke.&lt;br /&gt;Everyone asked why she did it,&lt;br /&gt;But no one spoke.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But inside you knew it,&lt;br /&gt;You knew it was you.&lt;br /&gt;But other than that,&lt;br /&gt;It was everyone too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stop the bullying.&lt;br /&gt;Stop the mean stuff.&lt;br /&gt;Do you see what happens?&lt;br /&gt;Don't think your so tough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stop the bullying.&lt;br /&gt;It's at a huge rate.&lt;br /&gt;Stop the bullying&lt;br /&gt;Before it's too late.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6072188149875399014-2513706624869534597?l=inspiringwriter.blogspot.com'
