50 Word Story : BREAK (@jayna's contest)
Silent boy could never imagine. Star player on high school basketball team. Walk and jog routine before and after school. Suddenly group of bully came. Hit and punch little boy in pain. Sporty good boy but not a fist fighter. Dreams and passion break with bully boys in the street.
Thank you for sharing your story, @tinkerrose. I wish bullies didn't exist!
Your welcome. Painful to see those victim.
Bullies just need to be confronted, but the bullied are often gentle souls who don't do confrontation..
Because they are afraid to reach out.
There is a poetry to the structure of this story that makes it more powerful. Bullying is so sad, sad for the people who get bullied, and sad for the people who feel the need to do it! It is horrible how the experience sticks with the victims for years, the dreams broken by fists can be lost forever, a powerful story!
Thank You @calluna.
