Don't Look Back.
I turn away. Don't look back.
I hear their voices, their
Laughs.
Giggles.
Don't look, just don't look back.
Maybe someday,
You'll understand.
Understand that it really isn't
That hard to smile instead of
Glare.
Or compliment instead of harass.
Just one time.
Change the poor boy's look from
Crushed, to content.
I get jealous too. And I get mad.
But I smile at that bully
Catch her off guard.
And maybe she'll try to spread that smile
That kindness through out.
And then,
Then,
Maybe life can get better
For the rest of us.
