Finally, after several years, I decided to stand up to my bullies.
Thanks ahead of time to anyone who reads this to the end. (It's a bit depressing, but gets good at the end.)
The majority of these are from middle school.
I was a pretty weird kid, You know, the kid that everyone liked picking on.
Since I'm the weird one, the different one, you chose me to be your victim. You chose the defenseless, confused one, just like you all do. That's what you like, you like walking all over and spitting on the ones you know won't do anything about it.
Yeah, it made you feel good, didn't it? If feels good to make someone feel like complete crap. It feels good to make them cry. You think you're better than me? You think you can toss my books around, and laugh as I miserably walk in front of the laughing class to pick them up, and say you were kidding? You think it's all fun and games. You think you can (literally) push me around and tell me to "get out of here" just because I'm weak, frail, and different?
Ha, life is going to hit you so hard and knock you off your feet, if you think you're going to get away with this in life. One day, you will be the one being pushed around. And you know what, you'll fall if you keep that attitude up. You'll be so surprised when you find out that you're not so superior after all.
You take a paper and let everyone sign it but me? Haha, are you kidding? Is that the best you got? Signatures? That was ridiculous. I only included this to show how ridiculous you are.
Teachers, are you serious? You actually believe that you can exploit a student's differences in front of the whole class and tell them to just leave because they shouldn't be here? You think you can do that and still deserve to be a teacher? Well, I got news for you. You don't! You think it's ok for the whole class to laugh at me for my ridiculous grades, instead of actually helping me? Wow, just wow. It's unbelievable that you are probably still teachers, and you probably still treat students like this. You think its ok to take the side of a bully. Something is wrong with you there. Something is really wrong. And I thought I had the problems!
I'm anorexic too, aren't I? I must be, since you know everything about me. Well hunny, I got news for you, for all of you. I'm the one who eats healthy and exercises now. Look who has the healthy habits, and look at you. I bet you just sit on your butt all day. Want to know what made me this way? You! If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have thought of using healthy habits to gain weight! I enjoy being healthy, while you enjoy.... I don't know.
I don't remember what it's called. Study hall? I didn't do my homework so I had to sit separate from everyone else who just laughed at me. "Poor little red girl" Yep, that was me. "Poor little red girl" Maybe some of you remember. Yeah, my heart was racing, my cheeks were red. I almost cried. Yet, I don't even know why I wasted that energy on people like you.
And you think you can toss your garbage to me. Why? Too lazy to get off your ass and throw it away yourself? Because you think your cool?
I remember most of your names, and I bet most of you are reading this and laughing, but you know what, I don't care! If you can't take things like this seriously, you will never get far in life. Laugh at the poor little red girl. I don't care anymore! I bet you are laughing at the memories, well some things never change then. You are still a pathetic person.
...
Are you happy that what you did still effects me today?
Because of you, I'm the 20 year old who wants to change the world.
If I could choose to re-live my life, but have a "normal" life instead, I wouldn't do it, because if I had a "normal" life, I wouldn't be who I am today. Who knows, maybe I would have turned out to be like you.
I know so many things that you can't even begin to comprehend. I'm the one who wants to spread hope to the world, and that's the person I want to be. I'm one of the few who actually cares. I spend my time helping people who need it. Today, people tell me that I inspire them, and that's an amazing feeling, much better than making them feel like garbage.
My life is meaningful and fulfilling. And going through those years of hell was worth it.
I am who I am because of you, and I'll never be able to thank you enough for it.
I win; you lose.
"Sometimes, it takes your whole world falling apart
to really know what you stand for.
What do you stand for?
Life falls apart,
but did you ever see where every piece could land?
Maybe pieces of you were pre-planned to fall apart.
So they could fall together;
So they can fall in place for someone else." - Garret Rapp

I Know You're Strong, Let's Be Stronger Together
I Know You're Strong, Let's Be Stronger Together
if i’m being completely honest,
i can’t say i know what you’re goin’ through.
and if i’m being frank,
i’m sort of afraid to write this
because i’ve always been unsure
if i love too much but it’s my nature
and i’d rather lose by trying too hard
than to do so without doing enough.
i hope you’re asleep now
and i hope you don’t read this
till the morning and i hope by then
things will be a little lighter
but i’m hoping against hope
because if you don’t know,
i feel when things are off.
call it intuition, call it a feel

red decisions
being fifteen is
a lot like being stuck
at a red with no one
at the intersection
except for you.
you know that if you
apply enough pressure
to the pedal underfoot,
you will propel
across the intersection
and carry onwards
uninhibited,
but all your life,
(the brief flicker it has been)
they have told you
red means stop,
green means go, and you
need to wait your turn
like everyone else,
it is the way things work,
and you shouldn’t ask why.
still,
you fear that,
when the light finally
switches over to green,
it will be too late
to do all of the things
you were waiting for
in the first place.

Anti-Suicide Letter
I'm going to keep on living because despite the chaos in the world, there is love and hope in the world. There is love and hope in myself. I've discovered my gifts, my special talents and I will use them to change the world for the better. My family has instilled in me lessons that are highly valuable and should not be wasted in Death. I could be living in the very dark times of the past but I'm here. I could be homeless and robbed of my senses but I'm not. I could have a careless family but I don't. The Divine has given me the gift of life and choice and I will respect, honor, and cherish those gifts.

I remember being spat on in high school, because I too was an easy target - I started getting pimples on my face before my peers and I had braces on my teeth. The boys would spit vile phlegm at my school bag, my back, my art portfolio even! It was very nasty. I hear you. And I am so sorry for what you endured.
