You watch me beat myself up
Never wrapping me in foam
You see me being eaten alive
Never bothering to kill the demon
You hear my cry of help
Never coming to the rescue
You fallow my trail of tears
Never mopping them away
You hear my heart being shattered
Never picking up the pieces
Oh, You’re all just the same,
Exactly the same
You watch and you listen
Never bothering to help

I wrote this poem about students who choose to do nothing when they see someone who is being bullied or even when someone is depressed or lonely. And to be honest, sometimes, I'm one of those poeple.
