I have a poem that i wrote years ago lol. It won me second place in the National Poetry Society in Las Vegas in 2002 and its in my book called Nightly Thoughts.
Well here goes:
I feel no life within this mind of mine
As it thinks from time to time
Breaking down the very nature of existence
Into what you see before you today,
The pain embedded within my mind
And the thought to only live to die
Is showing the weakness of my heart and soul
To which I cannot begin to embowel
This dream I never had till this day of truth
But what is it worth
A little love that I know wont last
But ill try to keep it to the very last
Drop of blood my heart can contain
And yet this seems so mundane
In every respect accountable for
To be done in this war
Of mind and heart
Which is to be shot with the dart?
The mind for thinking what the heart wanted to know
Or the heart for feeling what the mind wanted to show
Either way I state this case
As if it wasn’t a broken shattered vase
That I did throw upon the ground
And end up creating nothing sound
To the ear of man nor beast be told
And in these words I might have shown
The true pain for insanity
That came with the clarity
Of the nothingness I live
And the blood that I only seem to give
PS:Mind you i am NOT emo but i write similar to Edgar Allen Poe xD
