The Reason I Turned Goth
|
I live in a tiny village called Barlborough, in the middle of
England. It's really old, really quiet, and really boring... In
fact, the only good thing is the church. Anyway, as I said it's
a really small village, and suprise suprise I am the only goth,
if not the only person in it *smirk* |

Well, I became goth just after I split up with my best friend. I
felt so alone and isolated, like there was no one the same as me
anywhere. I felt uncomforable in modern clothes, so shy and
uncertain because I didn't like fashion, and when I did try to
keep up with everyone else, I failed miserabley. |
Then, on Friday 13th December I went to a Cure concert....Wow,
these people all in black, not following fashions, not on their
own. It seemed like heaven....These people read poetry and were as
deep as me. I don't know, I always seem to think more than other
people, I guess I'm just a big softy really, things get to me. I
knew I was meant to be goth, and so slowly I changed my make-up,
clothes and hair. It just feels right to me, there is a certain
bond I feel with other goths, like no one really understands you,
except others like you. And you could almost be instant friends
because you have something in common, even if it is only isolation.
I know I should be talking about goth clubs and stuff, but I'm too
young to get in any, so that clears that up!! |
I enjoy everything about being goth.....The second glances you get
when you walk down streets, the knowing smiles you can share with
other people who look different, the music, the films.....Just
everything.
