The pain, the hurt, the loss, the sadness.
The knife cuts.
My best friend hates me, my boyfriend left me.
The pain, the hurt, the loss, the sadness.
The knife cuts.
MY wrists are scarred, my heart broken.
The pain, the hurt, the loss, the sadness.
The knife cuts.
My best friend calls me, apologizes, my longtime crush tells me he loves me.
The pain, the hurt, the loss, the sadness is hidden.
The knife hesitates.
The phone rings, my lyrics chosen, a million dollars mine for just a song.
The pain, the hurt, the loss, the sadness disappears.
The knife breaks in two.

I do love your poem though and try using your ishs that way, in poem form. kinda sounds gay and stupid, but i do think that would work better since you are an amazing poet. 5/5

personally, i have nothing wrong with emos. but i must say, why would you need to express yourself in that hurtful of a way? Try just telling someone u trust and if they dont understand it that way either, thats their problem. they dont see it your way, forget u even talked to them. confused just saying. i do see where and how you see it that way, but thats how i see it.

thanks. i really needed all that moral support. and it isn't about what i do myself, it is what happens in the poems. the poem seemed to flow, and so i put it up here. i wasnt trying to make a statement.
