words hurt. please read.
........
Hide behind your black makeup
long, dark sleeves to cover the cuts
hide behind your long, dark hair
if you're so hidden
then why do they stare?
'emo' is possibly one of the most degrading labels ever.
there are kids struggling with depression everywhere
we all try to cope in some way or another, a lot of times we turn to darkness on the outside to let out what's on the inside.
there is by no means something wrong with a person who wears dark makeup/clothing, has dark wild hair, listens to heavier music, has an addiction or has struggled with self-harm before, or flat out calls themselves emo.
we all have our flaws and good qualities. it is not for other people to decide the 'whites and the blacks' and the 'grey areas'.
be yourself, but do so in love. be original, but not in a manner that puts others down. if you're made fun of or persecuted, remember you're better than that.
Words are strong. use them carefully.
thanx for reading.

Yes words can kill. And everyone is equal. It makes me mad when people think that they're better than someone else.
I hate it when people label each other. There's nothing wrong with being different and everyone IS the same in equality. I know some people who think that they're above it all and it just peeves me off. I wish that everyone knew that we're all equal and that words used for bullying can kill/depress people. Thank you so much for pointing this out.
words actually hurt because everyone labels me & call me names...i feel hurt but i don't show them that i'm sad :(
I hate labels :( no one cared about them where i used to live a few years ago, but where I am now its horrible. If you try to hang out with more than one specific "group" it's like world war 3
i can totally relate to this and it makes me sad that people are so so cruel just because you're different...
words hurt..... don't I know it.
I hate labels.... Words hurt alot... They can kill..... I know how all of that feels.... It's horrible.....
This is great. Many people hide who they are, or change themselves, because they're scared of what others might think or say. This is so wrong I don't know where to start. You're right, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a person who wears dark makeup/clothing, has dark wild hair, listens to heavier music, has an addiction or has struggled with self-harm before, or flat out calls themselves emo.
