Give In.

Yeah, I am emotional and often seem to dwell in my own emotions and thoughts.

Yeah, I like to listen to soft rock or blues.
Stuff like John Mayer's Dreaming with a Broken Heart or Lifehouse's Whatever It Takes..
Or even old school stuff from Goo Goo Dolls and Switchfoot..

Yeah, I like to talk about my feelings and analyse yours.

Yeah, I like to tell stories of my own.

Yeah, I like to listen to your stories and experiences. I use them as a guide to help myself and others who have gone off track and lost their way.

Yeah, I am often sad looking.

But, so what?


I'm still happy. I still laugh and joke around. I still smile.
And anyone knows that you can act, put on a mask and show the world you're happy all the time.


But, I want to be human.


I give in. I allow myself to reconnect with my emotions, sad or happy. I give in to feel vulnerable.

I don't want to turn numb and become those who are afraid of their own feelings like many people I know.

They have kept their feelings buried deep inside and built a wall around it.
But when it's time to feel sad, they have no clue how to react, how to open up, how to feel.

So, in the end, they feel trapped, lost and helpless.

I don't want to be like them.
I choose to accept my emotions and be human.


So, even if I was sad or emo..


..what's wrong with being emotional?


What's wrong with being "emo"?
