The one called Goth

You can see it in my eyes
And with each passing sigh
I leave an impression
Of complete depression
Upon the ones who see
That side of me

This side of me wont go away
It leaves something for you to say
You think how did this all rub off
You ask me how i became a goth
But i truely say im far to soft
To be the one who is called goth

You single me out
Without the doubt
That i might be formal
But you said im not normal
Cause of all the black i wear
Makes it seem that i wont care
To be the outcast
How long will this last?
So tell me now what you see
Can you honestly say you see the real me?
I never got the chance to show
The side of me you didnt know

So can you see it in my bright brown eyes
That with each and every sigh
That the impression
That i leave is not of depression
But of hope for restoration
Upon those who see
That very side of me

If only ppl would look at whats on the inside and not the out...
This is something I know far too well.

Thats like being a Christian... some couldn't care enough to watch you die, but others do care and show love. I can relate to the goth part as well... I used to be a witch.

Casey, this is a very sad poem I mean at least you look on the bright side of things and if they have a problem with that then let them be, they arent you true friends at all. Thanks for sharing this, it brings truth somewhere in you.

Poetry can get you very far

Casey, I know what it is like to be called stuff you aren't. Shoot all the way through high school people thought I was a lesbian because they never saw me date. But I am not a lesbian. I just choose not to date. My schooling was more important to me. Anyways, I like the way you expressed your feelings. Keep up the awesome poetry!!!

Poetry is beauty in words.

I adored this!

I wear all black (most the time) because that is what I prefer...not because I am trying to make a statement..but people need to judge and make assumptions...

thankfully I am at an age where I just don't care what others may think. It's the ones that are close to me that count and they wouldn't judge.

Loved the poem

reminds me of how much high schoolers love to shove you into a tiny little box with a label on it

people see sometimes they choose to ignore that there could be a nice person there, just going by out layers is not what makes a person it's all on the inside, and it seems like you have a heart of gold, just misunderstood.
