The Army

about my idols and saviours......... the men if BVB

They label us

emo

They label us

f*g

They label us

losers

 

It makes us cry

 

They label us

ugly

They label us

fat

They label us

cutter

 

Its time to take a stand!

 

We join together

and fight all your hate

 

Show we are stonger

then your names

 

Wether its on heaven's cloud

or the firey pits of hell

 

We fight together

to get our voice out

 

Preach the word of freedom

and it's oaky to be your self

 

We join together

and become all that we can be

because when the Rebels fight together

 

We can set our souls free

I absolutely love this, first of all because it is SO TRUE! The second thing I love about this is your reference to heaven and hell. I couldn't even count how many Christians have degraded me or called me names and judged me, but I know when there time comes, they will know that judgment is a sin. I'm not particularly religious but I know enough to know what is right and wrong and judging people is wrong. The third thing I love is the two lines "Preach the word of freedom and it's okay to be yourself" So many people are scared to be themselves because they are scared of what other people will think of them. People have to be able to let that fear go and just be happy and love themselves. This poem has great flow and logic. Keep 'em coming!

You said it right there, "It's okay to be your self". Don't let others get you down because they choose to write you off instead of trying to understand you. Your comradeship gives you strength and confidence.

It's probably not how you meant it to be taken but I giggled a bit at "It makes us cry", because in juxtaposition with the word "emo" it sounds like a joke. So I guess Tabitha t is right that it can be taken many ways. Good write.
