I've been very emotional recently and been through a lot generally. I feel like crying and or being cheered up. I am going to give you some situations of mine, some easy, some harder that you need to look into a little more. I want you to pick the option(s) you want and write on them. Please put the option number in your authors comments. Please don't make me have to make rules! Oh and you can enter as many times as you like... But no prewrites, for obvious reasons. Thank you guys and here are the options. No rules except write from your heart and points are subject to change, depending on quality of entries, how many I get etc. Here are the options:
(NOTE: If you are going to write something sad/romantic/hopeful for me that is out of your own ideas, skip the options. Or do both, your pick. Just saving you reading time if you don't want to do an option! Thanks).
Make Me Cry:
1. Write a poem about a woman who believes all men use her. How they feel all that men want is sex and that they are not capeable of love.
2. A woman believes she doesn't deserves to be loved, or maybe she believes she should be used as sex is all she is useful for. Basically the oppossite of number 1 in some ways.
3. In the past you grew up with a sister that had Schizophrenia, then you got touched up by a female a year older than you who had her own mental problems, then you moved to a new school and were persued by guys who were agressive. If you choose this please read my *Losing My Innocence over and over* poem, this will give you the exact things that happened.
4. You were born with a visual impairement. It is called Optic Nerve Hypoplasia (can google it if want to know more about it). Write about how this affects your daily life and how you just want to be normal sometimes.
5. Your ex boyfriend claimed that he loved you but he cheated on you several times. Though you kind of cheated on him this was due to his psychological abuse (blaming you for everything that went wrong, accusing you of cheating when you hadn't etc) and whom also touched you up and hit you (can look up my poems if you like to get an idea of what he done but you DONT have to comment, don't worry). Write down how you feel, what you feel you want to do to him or if you were in that situation what you'd do to him. How it would leave you feeling.
6. Like option 5 you went through all this with your ex and now he is back telling you that he loves you and needs you and that you are the first friendly voice he has heard in ages. You were begining to get your life back on track (or on a track) and he's back. You still feel a glimmer for him and you know he isn't intentionally bad and that he just has issues. How do you feel... What do you do? How does it hurt inside? Considering you have a boyfriend who loves you who yes does have a past (can look it up) but is making up for it so much now that you feel so bad.
Some options a little different, you may like them though:
1. You are one of the guys who uses the girl mentioned above. Why do you use her? What does she do to make you use her? (use your imagination. Either based on my actions from poems or make up a total fabrication, obviously not too far fetched and no I wont hate on you!).
2. You are the girls boyfriend. How hurt are you that she is in pain? What do you have to say about the things you've done to her and others in the past? How do you feel about this ex coming back 'for more' and what do you want to do to him? How do you really feel about her?
3. You are one of the guys who 'use' her... But you secretly either admire her/pity her/love her. Write down your feelings about her... Or what made you feel these feelings and why.
4. You are a family member to this girl / a close friend. How does this generally affect you? Any of the above situations, just explain which one you have captured in your authors comments.
5. Anything else from someone elses point of view that cares/hates the girl. Write whose though i.e. a friend, her mother etc... Would help if you got to know my personality as it is based on me but not essential.
6. Your reactions to any of the above as you, yourself, the poet. How it leaves you feeling. If you choose this please leave your username in authors comments.
Some Options For Those Who Don't Want To Get Personal (Or THAT personal):
1. Write a poem about a girl who questions her own feelings. Can be about any feelings, or a mixture. She just questions herself.
2. Write about a girl who is torn between 2 or more guys. How does she feel? This can be personal.
3. Write a poem giving a girl like listened above, or any girl going through tough times, hope. How you feel you can help them.
These are only ideas... Can write on anything sad... Just ideas! If you choose something else please put what it is related to in your authors comments. Remember you have to make me cry, give me hope, make me feel love... Whatever. Just feel my pain or make me feel THE pain.
So you all know. Yes this character above is based on the life of me. As in the girl you are having to write about is me. So you can use language like you, her or myself, depending on how the narrative is. Write anything extra in your authors comments box and write as many as you like! Please give me this emotion, I need it!
No prewrites, no limit... Erotica/swearing... Fine... As long as it fits. Give me sadness people!
