Cyberbullying
Alicia Morrison
What gives you the right
to open your mouth about
something you know nothing
about
or to make me feel small
and insignificant
Oh, freedom of speech,
freedom of ignorance too,
you’re allowed to be
an idiot
You’re allowed to believe all
the lies the media feeds you
and to take it out on those
who can’t defend themselves,
those that cry in the corner
each night
Where is the line drawn
I want you to speak your mind
But I want your mind to be your
own
and I want it to be a peaceful
voicing of your opinion,
a peaceful demand for
Equality, Love, Hope,
Don’t fill your hands and screens
with knives while begging for
so-called peace
Don’t fill your hearts with hatred
while requesting love with a bomb
Link hands with everyone and I mean
Everyone with
signs of hope
and upload your posts
filled with facts
and kind tweets
because we are all
just trying to live
our lives.
