Bullying

Bullying in my society is bad at times and not so at others. Many don't even realize they are doing it others realize and just do not care. I see it pretty much every day. Whether its from talking behind someones back to physically hurting them. Calling names, making fun, physical, menta, it all is considered bullying.

Speak

Speak was a very intense dramatic novel. It dealt with many real life circumstances and taught me to never judge. Melinda in the novel Speak deals with being raped and everyone hating her to an extent that she cuts herself. All throughout the book Melinda has to deal with people hating her for calling the cops at one of the summer partys, having no friends, no one understanding, what everyone does not know is that she called the cops because she was in shock from getting raped by It, Andy Evans. Melinda finds security in an old unused janitor closet. She sees that as her home away from home. Here she can relax, sleep, and be herself. No one judging her, no one there to call her names. Safe, hid away from the hate and ridicule.

Miss Him

Day by day I think of you,How can all of this be true?I can't believe you're really gone,I still can't accept it,Even after so long.Just the thought of you makes me cry,I never even got the chance to say goodbye.Every picture, every letter,I don't know if it will ever get better.I always smell your familiar scent,It makes me think of all of the times we've spent.I know we didn't always get along,And every time we talked, it would always go wrong.So many things I never got to say,I never imagined you'd ever be so far away.You were my brother,And I loved you like no other.In my heart you'll always be,You’ll be my guide and help me see.I'll never forget your soothing voice,I would take your place if I had a choice.But now I have to let you rest,Although without you my world's a mess.I miss you with all of my heart,I wish we never had to part.I know you're always by my side,So now I guess this is my goodbye...


The time has come to say Goodbye, will try not to cry It' been so hard to let you go. To be in heaven don't you know But you did not go alone Part of us went with you The day God took you home You will forever be in our hearts Your memory will keep us from falling apart You should hear the kind words people say How you touched their lives in so many ways I am so proud and blessed to get to say That's my brother in every way Thank you brother for all you gave For everything you showed us along the way Now I want to say to you How much I love and miss you too So rest in peace big brother of mine I'll see you again when it's my time.
