Love,
What would you do for a beloved friend?
Take my stolen knife to your arm,
Carve a dedication,
Hides your tears from those who know not better.
Keep the secrets to yourself
Repeat, repeat the words at night
The promises that shall not be forgotten
As you lie, soft, delicate, still
Shielded by the mercy of the winds
What a cruel world
When the harsh winds are seen as so kind
It's a good thing
You have such a nice friend
What would you do for this beloved one?
Starve your heart of color
Your soul of light
Hang the blank canvas in your eyes...
Where only he can see it
Only he and I
As
Our minds scream remorse,
Mournful silence
I wish it had been me...

I don't think it's emo by any means. I love it! It's so beautifully constructed, the meaning flows so smoothly from one line to the next. It is so powerful and your emotions are very well expressed. Amazing job!
