We live in an emo nation

Folder: 
2011

If I commit suicide would anyone care?
You put it on facebook yet no body’s there
Mass marketed sorrow of socialised greed
I want and I want and I want and I need
Until I become hollow as a glass after last call
I pick up the piece just to see them as small
So if I commit suicide would anyone care?
And if I decide to live, would you be there?

Sorry to hear about your

Sorry to hear about your friend, I hope you've found some peace since. I liked the poem itself a lot, some wonderful imagery such as the empty glass, really sets the scene which is impressive when you're only working with 8 lines!

not gonna lie for a while I was worried you had killed yourself! You just went silent on postpoems!
