dont be stupid
dont be lame
we all know you're
the one to blame.

you started the rumour
that hurt so many
that started as humour
but missed not any.

School is terrible for rumours, this one girl was the victim of a bad one and it kept being passed around. i just felt sorry for her.

Rumours don't define who u r nd being a bully doesn't mean tht one is strong or has any control over the life of others!!!!

I really like this poem because I feel like it gives a voice to bully victims from a differnt angle. Instead of saying "stop bullying" you wrote more from the angle of "think about the consequences of bullying, which are bad, so stop it". I also liked the picture that you choose to put with it. I think that it sends a message by itself. It shows a different message than your poem, but says the bullies are just as weak as anyone else, and they cry too". Great work!
