Then he asks this guy, "Do you think she would look better without make-up?"
"She’s emo."
‘Cos that’s an answer. Loser. I was denied by strangers. Oh well. I’m gonna have some pizza. I was called emo today so many times. Oh I’m gonna be Davey for celebrity day just with blonde hair unless I can find black dye. I might need to borrow a few things from a few people. I don’t know where I’m gonna find black jeans though…hmm I’ve seen him wear blue jeans but that doesn’t help…oh I’ve seen him in regular jeans but in those pictures he’s wearing light shirts. I don’t know. When I find the picture I’m gonna copy I’ll paste the link. Oh and I put chapter 4 of my story up. Go read, please.I’ll tell you how it haunts me. Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams. That’s one of my favorite lyrics. That’s from This Time Imperfect by AFI. Oh read this poem! It’s beautiful. Oh that reminds me, I need to find a Robert Frost poem.
The Spoken Word
We held hands on the last night on earth.
Our mouths filled with dust,
We kissed in the fields and under trees,
Screaming like dogs,
Bleeding dark into the leaves.
It was empty on the edge of town
But we knew everyone floated
Along the bottom of the river.
So we walked through the waste
Where the road curved into the sea
And the shattered seasons lay,
And the bitter smell of burning
Was on you like a disease.
In our cancer of passion you said,
"Death is a midnight runner."
The sky had come crashing down
Like the news of an intimate suicide.
We picked up the shards
And formed them into stars
That wore like an antique wedding dress.
The echoes of the past broke the hearts of the unborn
As the Ferris wheel silently slowed to a stop.
The few insects skittered awayIn hopes of a better pastime.
I kissed you at the apex of the maelstrom
And asked if you would accompany me in a quick fall,
But you made me realize that my ticket wasn't good for two.
I rode alone.
You said,"The cinders are falling like snow."
There is poetry in despair,
And we sang with unrivaled beauty,
Bitter elegies of savagery and eloquence.
Of blue and grey.
Strange, we ran down desperate streets
And carved our names in the flesh of the city.
The sun has stagnated
Somewhere beyond the rim of the horizon
And the darkness is a mystery of curves and lines.
Still, we lay under the emptiness
And drifted slowly outward,
And somewhere in the wilderness
We found salvation scratched into the earth like a message.
