Gothic

People see me the way I am.Dressed in black from head to toe.People see the pain I'm in.Sorrow and heartache that will never go.People don't hear when I cry at night.People don't stop to think that maybe,just maybe,there might be something wrong with me.People say things.About how I look.or how I dress.I dress this way because I've given up.On life.Love.Happiness.Hope.Faith.I thought he loved me.I'm a clown in a one man circus,where everyone laughs.No one feels what I feel.I pierce my skin with razors and pins.No one understands.No one cares. that's why I do this shit.to take the pain away.People see me the way I am. Dressed in sorrow and heartache.they never stop to ask or to wonder why.Why I do this to myself.why I'm in so much pain.If you loved him like I did you'd do the same.People see me the way I am.I'm gothic.so what? I walk around.in black.because of the heartache that he can never take back. People see me on the streets and yell somethings.I just turn the other cheek.because their words dont hurt.not anymore.why should I stay here? I hate this world.No one loves me so I guess I'll go. So the whole world will know. That he caused my death by telling me a lie.On my tombstone it will say "Here lies Rebeccah" and then my last name.and under that it'll have "she committed suicde because she had this pain that she could never hide." People see me the way I am.Dressed in black from head to toe.People see me the way I am.Gothic. Gothic is the way I am.

No form to the poem, but I like that you try to write about things that make you 'feel' something. I do feel like you're trying to write, not because you're using it as a way to release emotions or vent etc, but rather as a way to get people to understand you.
People will understand you a lot more if you write what you feel, instead of what you want them to know. Hugs, Amby

I can admire that you're not afraid to be yourself as being yourself is one of the hardest things to do. Even harder is dedicating yourself to yourself (if that makes sense) 24 hours a day in any situation. But people are apathetic, you can't expect a random person to see you in the street and begin to wonder about your life, they've got other things to do, other people to care about. Family is different, friends are different, as they all should care. Even you yourself probably don't care about every person on the planet, caring that much for people you don't know is while admirable, hasn't got much point. I do hope that you may feel differently now, but these things will pass in time.

i completely understand... i am labled "gothic" but i deffinitely get what you mean...

i dress in black have pasty white skin (no make-up needed) have black and blood red hair...

and its considered gothic nobody knows why i dress the way i do or why i barely leave the house, tehy just think im the freak goth who lives in the ghetto... although barely anyone knows me... unless they see me walk through the door...

not every one is so judgmental people judge for the littleest things dont take it personall most are trying to impress someone else and have no real thought of what their doing my whole family judges over the things i do, i figure its my body ill dress it how i like and paint it just right raw emotion is the best type of writing
