for the record, i never and will never join the "emo" bandwagon. i will never cry like crazy or slash my wrist just to get attention :)
as told by ginger had always been a part of my adolescence. and until now, that i am already an adult (finally i've accepted it), i still can't get enough it. in one of its episodes, ginger entered her poem "and she was gone" in a competition hoping her work gets published. unfortunately, it didn't.
the video is the last part of the episode, and they put music to the poem and turned it into a song. it kinda have an emo feel because the general mood of the scene is really depressing. but as i remembered it, ginger didn't even try to kill her self or rant that she's unloved on this episode..hahahahaha!.
i miss ginger foutley.
And She Was Gone Poem, by Ginger
She chose to walk alone.
Though others wondered why.
Refused to look before her,
Kept eyes cast upwards,
Towards the sky.
She didn't have companions.
No need for earthly things.
Only wanted freedom,
From what she felt were puppet strings.
She longed to be a bird.
That she might fly away.
She pitied every blade of grass
For planted they would stay.
She longed to be a flame.
That brightly danced alone.
Felt jealous of the steam
That made the air its only home.
Some say she wished too hard.
Some say she wished too long.
But we awoke one autumn day
To find that she was gone.
Some say she wished too hard.
Some say she wished too long.
But we awoke one autumn day
To find that she was gone.
The trees, they say, stood witness.
The sky refused to tell.
But someone who had seen it
Said the story played out well.
She spread her arms out wide.
Breathed in the break of dawn.
She just let go of all she held...
And then she was gone.
