School

In school, a place where young hearts roam, But often, it's not quite like home. Hostile environments, we must address, Where kindness and empathy we must profess. In the hallways, whispers and jeers, Echoing the weight of adolescent fears. Bullying, judgment, and harsh critique, Make it tough for fragile hearts to speak. In the classroom's shadows, darkness creeps, Where hostile whispers and judgment seeps. Young souls bear the weight of cruel disdain, In a world where hope and smiles wane. Halls echo with the sound of heartache, As cruel laughter and taunts overtake. Lonely desks, where tears silently fall, In a hostile place, we build a wall. Teachers may not always see the pain, As despair weaves through every grain. A hostile school, a heavy cross to bear, Leaves scars and burdens hard to repair.
