Take A Stand

People flock in twos and threes
To gather around the cowardly act
"Fight,Fight" they chant with glee
As the victim tries to stay intact

People filming on their phones
Encouraging the bully
Ignoring all the pain stricken moans
That escapes the victim fully

People need to understand
That this is a disgrace
That no one chose to raise their hand
To say stop to the bullying taking place

If everybody took a stand
We could put an end
To the bullying at hand
And everyone could be friends.
