Emo - A poem written for Derek Lounder
By Amber A. Geddes

Piercings galore, and outstretched ears
Symbolizing my lost teenage years
I am ALONE, but I have two friends
My journal, my bic pen

I'm extremely hurt, this is true
I don't eat animals and protest those that do

Tear stained pages all over my work
Look what you've done to me, you fucking jerk
My heart is black, just like my hair
And still nobody seems to care

As for my heartfelt art, I think it's time to quit
This emo bullshit makes me want to spit
