Alone in the darkness of their room.
Shut-away in the corner.
The blade of a razor gleams in the moonbeam.
They reach towards it.
Blade in hand.
One swift swipe across the wrist.
Another.
Then another.
They wake up everyday.
Go on, lurk in the shadows.
Then they go home,
sit in the dark corner of their room.
And do it all again.
A month later,
they look at their wrists,
and think, "why?"
They see pink scars.
and remember.
Its for the one you love.

to be emo, you dont have to cut. emo is pretty much a style, like the way you dress and carry yourself. emo is short for emotional too, you dont have to cut to be emotional. cutting is for the weak, the people that take the easy way out.

Cutting yourself isn't really the thing that makes you 100% emo you know. Its an okay poem to say the very least. >_<

i do like the poem, but there is always alot of speculation as to what you do to be emo. it is definetly a complex subject.

I really like this poem. Its deep, and makes you think. I've been there and can relate.
