Tell me a story

SO this is my 14th contest I believe, wow not sure how that happened already.
Anywho. This being 2 weeks till my sweet 16th, I am mildly happy, but it seems more depressed. This is supposed to be one of the most exciting days of my life, but it's not going to be amazing.
A couple things have been going wrong in both my family and my love life. I am really looking for some support right now.

This contest is open to the following ideas:

=Suicide and cutting (either present or Ex)
=3 1/3 years ago my dad walked out on my family because he was told he could do better somewhere else, without us. It's been a hard while at home. So I am looking for anything about either seperation, divorse or maybe having a parent walking out.
=I want to hear about the hardest decision you ever had to make
=I want to hear about having to do something that was tearing you apart and you know would hurt everyone including yourself, but it would kill you if you didn't do it.
=I want to hear poems about feeling artificially happy
=I want to hear poems about how maybe you heard a song that felt perfect for how you were feeling, so I sort of Ode to a good or bad love song or even just any mood for any kind of song, (I would only ask for this one that you put the song name and artist in the author comments for I can listen to the song)

This is pretty easy, I suppose, not any rules except StICkY CaPS they piss me off. I don't care about spelling but there is a spell check, I don't care how many you enter, but like no more than 5 or 6 prewrites are allowed, because I know there are just good poems that apply that you wrote before, creativity if encouraged though. Please I want to feel EMOTION!

Thank you in advance for entering and helping me out.

I love you all
Danielle <3

    ok honey, my poem "Dark" doesn't fit in any of your categories, but then again I'm not really entering. I read your contest and I decided to submit this because it can relate. Whatever problems you may have...your feeling a lil dark. So go ahead and read it, enjoy. There is no need for a comment or anything like that. I just wanted to show you that you are not alone out there.

    friend, the teenage years are not supposed to be exciting or joyus at all. So many changes are ahppening, it is a wonder that there are so many happy go-lucky movies about highschool. lol, this is a very interesting and rather depressing conetst idea.

    I will try to enter this. I know I can do a few of the options, it's just a matter of sitting down and doing them. Otherwise, I would enter a prewrite, but since the new upgrade, I haven't been able to.
