It’s Not a Joke
Thin cylinder of paper,
Click of a lighter,
Hesitation,
Will I be a fighter?
“Are you a chicken?!”
“Come on!”
“She’s too scared”
“You’re such a moron!”
Deep breath,
Puff of smoke,
Life changes,
It’s not a joke.
“She did it!”
“You’re one of us!”
“ Come on Taylor!”
“You’re a boss!”
It’s fruitless,
One use,
You’re condemned,
Yet you have no clue.
Slow death,
I want to go back,
To tell that bullied girl,
That you can’t go back.
Deep breath,
Puff of smoke,
Life changes,
It’s not a joke.
