Emo For No Emotions? Or For Emotions?

The emotions that i feel inside are like nothing that i've had when i'm alive Most of the time i hide myself in darkness and I feel as if i drown in coldness The days surpass me like never before with joy and happiness knocking at my door I ignore them and go on i go on as if there's nothing wrong I am in the dark with no sense of feeling trying to not lie to those around me They ask if they can help in any way I say that i am fine When actually i have millions of things inside my mind They say emotions are just things people feel when actully it can also be actions Teens cut themselves and claim they are emos when they really have more friends than foes Can emo be for emotional for those who can't understand what they hold dear to them everyday "hand-in-hand"? Times can be rough but that doesn't mean that you can act all tough What does emo mean to you? can you not see those who love you and me? No emotions or emotions, you can't pick both, you see? Don't try to be who yu want to be just be yourself And that applies to you and me

Nice! I love this. And FYI "emo" just stands for emotional. we have just twisted it. and also "Emo" and "cutters" are soooo different. Cutters need serious help. Some "emos" do cut but sometimes they are very happy people but they feel like they have to hide. So I agree we need to be friends cause really "emos" are very happy people and freakin hilarious!!! Trust me I have tonz of "emo" friends!

this is a nice poem i wasnt sure what it was about whe i read the title but i was not dissapointed i have read a couple of your works and i enjoyed them i like the poetry that is a little on the darker side (like some of mine) because most the people on here are completely overly happy, which is good but every now and then i like a piece of reality like this! good write! =)jo
