Little Emo Girl

365 days in a year

20 of which she actually means it

so when she smiles and it reaches her eyes

you know she's really happy

when you see her originally, you think...

poor little emo, trapped in her own insecurities

but this girl knows what they say

and stores it all inside

there's nothing different about her

since the strangers changed her face

ripped her to pieces and spit in the remains

leaving her scared and naked.

she carries herself well

but revels in the cruelness of man

the ones who tore her to shreds

will never see the injustice of what they have done

so go on and mock her

she's already taken too much

let's see how long it takes before

she's left scarred and unloved

Ohh go ahead

you know you want to

This little emo girl.

She’s just a poor emotionless soul.

But this girl,

Who hides behind bright greens and vibrant pinks,

Isn’t who she’s thought to be.

I know because that little emo girl is me.
