From Dear Bully: Seven Authors Tell Their Story.
This is a part of a longer piece in the book.
An Innocent Bully- Linda Gerber
You didn’t think that would cause me to run home in tears
and look at myself in the mirror
and cry some more
because I was starting to believe
the names you called me.
I was gross.
I was weird.
I was stupid.
I was ugly.
I didn’t deserve any better.
