Ever been so in love you think that you might die from the sheer intensity of it? Ever been so jaded that you felt absolutely nothing inside, just an empty pit in your stomach, the feelings of self-loathing slowly starting to grow inside? Ever been so angry that you wanted to take all that rage, shove it down someone’s throat, and laugh as they sputter and writhe on the furry clogging their lungs?
This is a contest for passionate EVERYTHING; hate, love, pain, rage, loss, betrayal. Anything worth feeling. In this contest I will give you a series of simple options, basicly telling you exactly what I want, all you half to do is provide (in your own style) the things that my ideas inspire. Of course, there will ALSO be the option of giving me whatever the fuck you want, just as long as its severe.
Now, lets begin;
1) http://i7.tinypic.com/2n1z1v7.jpg
I think I’ll start off with a personal option; Rene, Markus to some of you was an extremely well known poet on AllPoetry. Last year [June 14, 2006] he committed suicide. He was loved and adored by many poets, and in memory of him if you would like to write a poem/song, or have already written one, please submit. Like many others… I miss him terribly. I loved that boy with all my heart, he was the closest thing I had to a brother, and he was one of the few people that knew me inside and out. I lost my best friend. I never got to say goodbye. [if you pick this option, please be sincere]
2) Write about the picture; simple enough, right?

http://i19.tinypic.com/47lnztz.jpg [how far would you go for perfection?]

http://i15.tinypic.com/4biwz82.jpg [that … is neverland]
http://i18.tinypic.com/2uhlrw2.jpg [well, will you?]
3) LOVE! Give me anything you’ve got on love! Any kind of love; rejection, puppy love, rebound, bitter, loss, breakup, Valentines Day- ANYTHING!
4) Hate; they say that there’s an extremely thin line between love and hate, and many times I think that people cross that line without knowing it. I want to know about that line, I want to know if you’ve crossed it, I want to know when you finally relized you crossed it. Give me your anger, your rage, your misery, give me tragedy!
5) Glitter. Gore. Hollywood Diva’s, Anorexia, Daydreams, Acid Green Clouds, Neon tainted tears, Glowsticks, Dreds, Rainbows, Drugs, Ecstasy, Needles, Alcohol, Addiction, Abortions, Sex, Rape; I want the worse case scenarios, I want the deep dark secrets, I want the lowest point in your life. I want your cravings, I want the withdraws, I want to know how bad you want that fix.
8) Neverland. Wonderland. Make it twisted, make it perfect, make it REAL.
7) LYRICS! [I claim none of these]
CellDweller; Frozen
Inside this fantasy
It seems so real to me
Synthetic ecstasy, ‘
when her legs are open
True Love behind a wall
Where men and angels fall
A fading memory,
when my mind is frozen…
--
Emery; The Ponytail Parade
three sleepless nights
this isn't how it's supposed to be
but you're so good at taking your time
to give back to me
I will wait for you forever
if you would just ask me
I thought that I could change you
but you changed me
but it doesn't feel right
holding someone else's hand
together on phone lines
and living at two opposite ends
it scares me to think that you could find takers
other than me and better than me
but your head is elsewhere
and I'm talking enough for both of us
when will you see it's not so easy for me
--
Pink; Heartbreaker
I keep thinkin' bout that little sparkle in your eye
Is it a light from the angels, or your devil deep inside?
What about the way you say you love me all the time
are you liftin' me up to heaven just to drop me down the line?
There's a ring around my finger, but will you change your mind?
And you tell me that I'm beautiful but that could be lie
Are you a heartbreaker
Maybe you want me for the ride
what if I'm fallin' for a heartbreaker and everything is just a lie
I wont be leavin' here alive
I wont be leavin' here alive, no
--
Marlyn Manson; Tourniquet
she's made of hair and bone and little teeth
and things I cannot speak
she comes on like a crippled plaything
spine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foil
silver-tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
but flies will always lay their eggs
--
Porcelain and the Tramps; I’m Your Favorite Drug
What you get is what you see
Won’t get much to get hooked on me
So shoot me right into your skin
And I will be your heroin!
--
Incubus; Steller
Meet me in outer space.
We could spend the night;
Watch the earth come up.
I've grown tired of that place;
Won't you come with me?
We could start again.
How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew.
Meet me in outer space.
I will hold you close,
If you're afraid of heights.
I need you to see this place,
it might be the only way that
I can show you how it feels to be inside of you.
How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew.
You are stellar
--
Astrid Haven; Ingrown Shadow
Footprints on the ceiling and a hurt machine
Forget your needs
fingerpaint stain just to kill the clean
Tunnel trees
Pixie dust to fly, knives to rape the beasts
Happy thoughts
Manners can die so long as I can breathe
Tick tick tock
Where did you go when you left today
Neverland
Grind up the skin for the kids to play
Neverland
To lost to care for being found again
Bangerang
Bleed the hand of morals feeding sin
Bangerang
Dream of a genocide so you can sleep
Pretty child
The pitter patter of the pixie feet
Bitter-mild
You bait your hook but I will catch the prey
Wind the clock
We'll leave you handles when we fly away
Hear the croc
I tried to catch my shadow to sow it back again
But we flew to far away from Neverland
Kill the thimble hide the kiss from the apathy
I never want to grow up to be the enemy…
--
9) FREE OPTION! Do whatever the hell you want, just make it intesense/heartwrenching
good luck luvlies <33 I wish you all the best of luck :]

I am sure this won't win - but this is the first poem I ever wrote to honor my husband for the way he loves me with Parkinson's - more than ever in our 30 years together - I would think it an honor just to submit this w/o hope of a trophy!
