"In the end we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silience of our friends."
-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Emo, emo, emo...That's all I hear. I don't mind it at all. It lets me know that my friends can actually see me. I'm not the most spectacular person. I'm not an over-achiever by any means. I guess in the society that we live in, if you aren't an over-achiever, or not extremely good looking, than it's easy to be over-looked or not noticed entirely.
I guess it was only natural to dye my hair black and dress a little emo. Sure, I can be pretty depressing some times, but who doesn't. In fact, most of the time I can be outgoing and friendly. But that's not enough to get me noticed, and my biggest fear is blending in. I don't want to disappear. I want to be seen, and heard, and felt. I've got so many opinions that nobody has ever heard of. Nobody ever asks my opinions. If I didn't make a drastic change, then I would've blended in. That would be sayonara for me.
I'm not the most social person. I can't connect with people, not for the lack of trying. I'm more of a personal type of guy. I can't openly talk about my problems with my friends. I tend to be the thinker in a group. The person who has the ideas when the group is stuck on something, but won't contribute to the discussion if everything is going smoothly. I sit back and think about everybody else's opinions, and leave my opinion out of it. If somebody wants to know my opinion, they'll ask for it.
Emo might be all they ever call me, but I know what I am. I'm an average 17 year old, weighing 125 pounds. I'm 5'10" with green eyes, and now black hair. I'm addicted to caffeine, video games, and poetry. I like roses, music, and the color purple. I wear glasses, and can't stand them. I'm not very athletic, due to my asthma, but I don't have an inhaler to take care of the problem. My family makes almost no money, and we pretty much live off the government. A family has to when their father is the only one that works, and he only makes about $20,000 dollars a year. I'm not devoted to any organized religion, but that doesn't mean I'm not religious. I just refuse to say that one religion is more correct over another one, because religions are beliefs and faith.

Poems from the Heart
I finally decided to write down some of my poetry here, even though I'm a disgrace to poets. Here they are, read them if you wish.
Signature
Shadows of loss and the fragility of a decimated heart are created by the so called light of love, and the strength of hope. Silly things like true love don't exist, and should never be thought about. A life waiting for love is a wasted life.
