Emo Poems

The world knows that there's more
I see what you do not see
That vibrant person of yore
The person you won't be

You tell yourself that you belong
I feel it everytime your soul cries
Caught in a trap you know is wrong
Kept in place...Read More

Wine tears
Flowing through the contours of cheeks
To reach these valleys residing in heart
Listen
Let the echo jump into this abyss
Until it reverberates like a suicidal cry
And breaks like a rope 
Adamant on giving second chance to life
Cloud covered skin
Akin to those...Read More

There's the
Guy
In the corner
Strumming on his guitar
Singing of the
Good ol 2000's songs
Shaking his head
At the recent rap reps
The golden eyelet
Etched on
There's the emo girl
In all black
Tapping furiously
On her laptop
Emailing any
Cooperations
That would take her
Her sighs can
Be heard from the
Other side of...Read More

The day was white with cold 
It slipped from heavens grasp 
And tangoed with the wind
As it fell happily down 

Unique in its perfection
A falling star 
Borne in freezing sky
Coming to meet me in person

Wrapped in its beauty
I tried to...Read More

Drinking 
instead 
of 
falling. 
My slumber can wait.
My depression alleviates.

As a little girl i was told
How to dress
How to do my hair
How to behave
I was never traditional
And was constantly torn down
Made me feel more and more
Ugly
Because of how i wanted to look 
Being mocked
For being myself
Because i was not...Read More

The worst kind
Of sad is not
Being able to
Explain why...Read More

My skin is so
Thin that the
Innocent words
Of others burn
Holes right 
Through me...Read More

It's been 5 months 
since the day I passed away
I haven't been doing much since then
Besides that, I've got so much to say

I can't seem to forget about you
despite what I do.
I don't love you anymore
so, what should I do?
Our...Read More

This day is quite strange--
I woke up with a perfect smile
I played a different playlist
Not the usual emo songs, at least. 
I said hello to the robin in her nest home
While I opened the curtains in my room
And let the...Read More

Frightened little one,
'N utterly beautiful caterpillar, she was.
Oh, courageously hunted,
Wicked wild flower, she spotted.

Dreaming whole-heartedly,
Beauty with a wing; t'was never granted.

For thy love of beauty was forever wished,
Such patience started to wither.
Poisoned flower thought contained magic,
Eaten with endeavour; life ended...Read More

Conflict
is my only source of progress
I need it just as much as I need water
be sad because you got rejected, it will aid you later
be joyful you passed your math test after the brutal conflict you endured
let our emotions burn...Read More

i drown myself in shallow streams my known noncompliance in the only reason i scream

i hang myself from 4ft high i only flail because i know that i won't die

i cut only a half inch deep i only cry because...Read More

I loved her voice
I've seen her eyes 100 times
but she never glanced to one of mine
I've thought about her 1000 times 
yet she never had me in her mind 

I'm watching 
my happiness
walking from a mile 
away
and all I can...Read More

I always think rain clouds
how dark and grey
and when it rains 
it will fade away
the mind doesn't have enough room 
for my gloom
but for the next day
as it rains
the flowers will bloom

Six. That's how many days, then weeks, then months of power but now those six months have turned into six hours, six minutes, six seconds ago.

I've had people confide in me but still mine I won't show.

I think I'm ashamed?

Embarrassed?

Maybe...Read More

He never knew the girl that wrapped her body in self-pity the nights she spent alone with no one else to warm her, blaming herself for every bad thing in her world.

He didn't know the girl that bathes her self...Read More

I wanted to sing... I wanted to harmonize,
I wanted to awe you with that high note.
It hurt me, I cried, when I tried...
So badly I wanted to sing.
They said: ‘’don’t sing’’
Those cruel words crushed my everything, my heart, my mind,...Read More

With wings as black as night, what death holds sway
By powers strong and ancient, death’s favored creature
Spirits burst to song at the Morrigan’s passing
With dark song filling the air, tulips wilt turning bare
As they pass through the morning air
Bird of...Read More

My anguish is metal heavy and tense
Rusting my heart as I lead by mistake.

Somethings awry in the cogs of my mind
Spinning off-centre they've broke more than once,

My youth was auspicious with seldom regret
The future held prosper now bleeds in my...Read More

You keep breaking my heart without you knowing it
It's like a curse and I seem to get to like it
I must be crazy but I somehow love you for ignoring me
It pains my heart but it also makes me happy
Damn!...Read More

There were so many stories I wanted to tell
Of how your smile made my heart swell
There were so many stories I wanted to hear
Of how you battle with your worries and fears
But we're 3596 miles apart
And you have no idea...Read More

You think.
You breathe.
And you scream and you cry and you laugh.
Because, 
Because Emotions don't change like light switches.

Emotions don't flow in a stream, 
smoothing a connection from one to another.

Emotions are rain drops, 
beating down on you
from the storm of...Read More

Have you seen the queen?
The queen of all other beasts
Because you she's seen...Read More

Sleeping with their night lights on
From dawn to dusk, from dusk to dawn
Children learn to fear the dark
Adults learn to numb their hearts
But when you’re grown and all alone
Still the shadows haunt your home
But truth be told; when nights are...Read More
