Tired of Being Bullied
I use to ask people for help but it seems as if help never comes
I can barely tell what is real from what is fiction anymore
Every day I have to fight either verbally or physically
My family motto is: Always protect and take care of family
But family is the one who seems to bully me the most
I lost trust when I was about 2 years old
I do not trust anyone not even my own mother
Every night I cry myself to sleep
Trying not to cry? I don’t even bother
But I still keep telling myself that things will get better
Every day is a struggle
The struggles that I have to face is even beginning to affect my health
I draw in hope that one day someone will read the story that I am trying to tell
All I have left is hope but even my last little bit of hope is beginning to fade away
Asking for help is like asking to win the lottery every day
Not going to happen so I just stop asking
Because it seems to me
That I will never live a life
That is bully free

I love that you're telling your story through poetry. The emotion in your words is coming through, and it would be great to see more in-depth/specific stories (a specific incident with your family, maybe? Or another bully you've identified). I think you're on the right track to really cracking into these stories you want to write.
