it rains, and the water drips to my soul;
to my veins. it feels like the blood.
the blood of the innocents that will die. we will all die.
none will be spared from our awaiting graves; all they need now is the name on the stone
i am alone.
i feel my soul darken and fray; there's no going back now. though i walk the earth i am less than a ghost; a phantom of fate
the people walk by and they stare. their stares are as cold as the steel on my skin and they hurt just as much when they go through....but pain is good.
i am the pain, and it is me.
no one understands me, i am a shadow. and when i fall through this world into hell, then at last i will be free.
but i can never be free; i can never be free of the one thing i hate most; myself
i am blinded by rage and my cheap eyeliner running. what i cannot see, i must feel and all i feel is cold.
i know that happiness exists; but it is not for me. i have tasted it, and rejected it. the key to it is in reach but i will ignore it.
'cause if i cut my hair then i won't look like everybody else.
woe is me.....

- Title: An Emo's Lament
- Artist: Starry Starry Fright

Description:
Before I say anything else, I must inform you all that this was written as a parody and nothing else. The original purpose of this poem was to get an overzealous, self-professed "emo kid" to stop bombarding me with page after page of god-awful angst-riddled poetry.
So this is my attempt at hating life. Enjoy it with satire in your heart. - Date: 12/26/2008

- That's really mean. Emo is just short for emotional, and I hate it how people associate people who where tight jeans and black clothing as emo and assume that they cut. I get called emo ALL the time, but I'm the happiest person ever.
