Stay away from a broken heart
Don't come any closer
Laugh at my hate filled scars
I'm an unloved Lover
Don't touch me, I'm so fragile
Shatter like a china bowl
Don't whisper, your voice is shouting
Drills me to the bone
Your razor promised me freedom
Instead, it gave me pain
Your heart was filled with laughter
Instead of love, it bore me pain
Don't touch my skin, it'll turn to dust
To blow upon the breeze
Don't dry my tears
I like my fears
They're my comfort
My Suicide dreams
I'm everything you want of me
And all the things you loathe
The dirty whore, the punchbag and more
Still you never gave me
Love

No no... I really think the emo here is necessary to making your point! Laughed througout this one for some reason...
oh i know why... sounds like the way I act (ehem, used to) with my folks sometimes~ oops!

lmao. My folks accept me, Goth and all, and if I'm pissed off, I'm barred from their house.
The emo, I agree is necessary in this piece, how else can you tap into what it feels like to be a victim?

haha I really like this and thought it was a lot like a lot of mine...so what does that say about me lol
nah I agree, I'm not an emo...I'm just very emotional...doesn't mean I look like one even if I do act like one sometimes roflmfao
I like to write a mixture, don't like to be tied to one genre either

I'm not Emo, despite what Sinead says..I prefer to tap into all styles. Granted, I dress Goth, act goth, but that doesn't make my blood Goth...My blood is 99% proof actually
I write what I want, when I want, and no amount of derision and taunting can or will change that. So some of my writing is 'Emo'...sometimes it's good to be in touch with a softer side.
Glad you like Sarah
