You see that girl sitting over there in the corner? <br />Yeah, her. <br />She's always so quiet and... dark. <br />I think she might cut herself. <br />How disgusting is THAT? <br />I don't think we should be her friend anymore. <br />I mean, <br />what would people say about us? <br />I mean, <br />I can just here it now. <br />Emo hugger! Emo hugger! <br />Ugh, but if we go over there <br />and tell Jake <br />nobody will think we're friends with her! <br />Hey Jake! <br />Did you hear that she CUTS herself? <br />I mean, <br />don't tell anyone but <br />I think it's just sick. <br />*The next day, her story* <br />Hey, what's everyone talking about. <br />How much we hate emos. <br />And since that includes you, get lost ya creep. <br />Wait, what? I'm not- <br />EMO EMO EMO EMO! ! YOU'RE AN EMO! <br />This is what they keep chanting. <br />She can't walk down the halls without being glared at <br />by her so called friends. <br />Her shoulder is burning <br />where she knows her cuts are hiding. <br />She runs home from school <br />hoping to find relief in her room. <br />Even if it's only for a little while. <br />But she comes home to a screaming match <br />and is suddenly regretting hurrying home. <br />And the next day is the same. <br />And the next. <br />And the next. <br />But today, <br />there's a change. <br />She's gone. <br />The night before she cut herself on each wrist <br />with three long, deep lines. <br />Then watched the blood drain from her body. <br />Then smiled when her mom came in screaming at her <br />only to cry in surprise to see her almost dead daughter <br />become her dead daughter. <br /> <br />Dec.-19-09<br /><br />Heart of Ice Die Die Die<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/emo-emo-emo-you-re-an-emo/
