They call me emo as they smirk with disgrace
digust rolls off there tongues
staring at me as i weep
eyeliner running down my broken face
hair in my eyes
blinding myself
from this world
thats left me so broken
yes i cry
im emo i guess
if emo is crying
loving music
being passionate
living loving dying
if that's emo
than i guess i am
More stares as i walk down the church
disgust in there eyes
but i know i belong
my Jesus doesn't care
but they continue to judge
not caring that there gazes pierce me
like a hundred knives
jammed deep into my chest
but i move on
cuz im emo, i guess

this is a very interesting piece. but you didnt tell me which option you were writing about. i'm guessing option 5. thanx for the entry and good luck to you in my contest.

Good job. You can hear the sadness in it. It's very to the point. It sort of has a "whatever" message to it. People are jerks, aren't they?

I loved how you really expressed your emotions in this piece and I also love the imagery and the way you painted a mental picture and it felt so real. Great Work and Best Of Luck in my contest!

Very good. it shows everything my contest askes for, and it follows the correct structuring.
This poem shows some dark points, with a good description on what an emo is in others, and your eyes. great write -
wow, I like it! I love everybody! I have friends of all diifferent "Labels" (I believe labels are for jars...) but yeah, if I had to be anything I would be a hippie, a morbid hippie anyway... but yeah, I love all people!
It's really easy to be sarcastic about religion... and I do believe in God and I love him all the same, but when I think of religion... well, to me it's like a stock market... you can't put all your faith into one thing, because when it falls you'll loose all your faith! I have a little faith several different religions... I believe their is a god, a devil, witchcraft IS REAL,(I've seen shit I even like to think about...) reincarnation, a slight bit of evolution is posible... but the religion I really liked was buddhism, it was cool being buddhist, I don't like the whole worshiping buddha himself, but I like their concepts! All in all I really don't like worshiping anyone really, I figure why should I raise my standards of living, just you live under some one els... I think of it like this, I choose what I want to do... and I do it... so if I am in control of what I do... then wouldn't that make me my own god? I ask people that all the time... it has a lot of controversy in it... damn... I wrote a lot... sorry i ramble without knowing it, even when I type, lol... well, I think I'm gunna quit while I'm ahead... sorry again...
See ya later!

nice.

Haha, I really like this poem. I myself do not like the emo stereotype, at ALL, and this poem really shows people that loving music and dressing a certain way does not make one EMO. So thanks for that. <33
