Favorite Quote:
"Boys are meant to ruin your lipstick, not your mascara" --Marilyn Monroe


"He only bullies you cause he likes you,"

they say,And now the girl you said that to thinks it is ok,

When her boyfriend calls her names and makes her feel worthless,

And the boy who heard you say that thinks that it's ok,

To hurt and bully which leaves his friends mirthless,

This girl you told it was ok to be bullied and abused,

Will now be set up for failure,

But she will say that's it's okay and continue with her day,

And this boy who now thinks he is superior,

Will become a violent man,

But he believes it's normal because this is what love looks like,

But this behaviours toxic,

And it cannot go on,

So don't tell your kids that it's ok,

Do you really want this for them?
