You give me dirty looks,
You don’t care for my hair,
You hate my black makeup,
You see my scars everywhere,
On my arms, hiddin on my legs

And all you do is judge me,

You don’t want to meet me,
I disgust you,
But you don’t know me,
Or why I do these things,
Why I cry my self to sleep,
Or cut myself every time I eat,
Why I drink my self into comas,

You’re not aware,
And you don’t care,

Of the toll your dirty an disapproving looks have on me,
Or the names i'm called,
Or the things i've seen,
You only judge me by what you see,

The world hates me,

Because you’ve labled me,

As EMO,

So in there eyes I’m emotionally unstable.

I like how you explained how crual and unapproving society can be.

&quot;Mess with the Best, <br /> Die like the rest . . .&quot;

These words reached a level of bold needed. I can't say I've experianced this personally, but I do have a few friends that cut or used to. And being labeled is never the right thing, especially when it drives someone over the deepend.

I am only one, but still I am one; I cannot do everything but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do something I can do.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ~ Edward E. Hale

I know exactly what you're feeling. It sucks how as soon as someone sees you they label you. It's hard to ignore them sometimes...Your poem was great, full of emotion, reality, the wording was amazing. In general I loved everything about this poem. <3

all it takes is all youve got

i might not understand the cuts, but as an outsider, I will never look at you or your like with disgust, and I never have.

&quot;Too often we lose sight of life&#039;s simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. It only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother@#?!&amp;* upside the head. &quot;

well i love your diffrent

&quot;To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing at all.&quot;

I can understand. Many people label me as emo....some call me an emo ho3....it doesn't make me feel good...but they just don't know anything. This is VERY relatable, btw:)
