I am so tired
exhausted
drained
over
this kind of behavior.
Trying to stand up
to people making a fuss over
nothing
and only getting insults and arrows
slung back at me
They crucify me
vilify
demonize
cancel
me, all because they don't know me
and don't care to.
I hope to have a friend
to stand with me
so I won't be
alone
but no one wants to stand
with me
with the target on my back
they don't want the target either
I might don't blame them
This target...
forcibly
painted on my back
by people who ridicule
because they're bored
with nothing better to do
Why did I become the subject
of their hate?
We never even spoke
before today
but they're not the first to cancel
everyone is so quick
to judge
to hate
to so blindly believe what anyone else would say.
I only want to exist in peace
to be left alone
such a wish not granted
and I don't even know why.
Those who would continue
to single me out
cannot see that they are the real
cyber bully.
