There are 2 options for this contest, in both i'm looking for dark poetry.
Dark love-
If you're in a relationahip where one of you is depressed it can be a hard thing to deal with. Whether you are the one who finds yourself feeling depressed for whatever reasons, or if it's you gf/bf who feels like that, i want poems from both sides. I want to know how you deal with it and what the hardest moments are. Maybe the one thing you want is for the other person to feel happy but you dont know how. Maybe before you've even had to stop the person you love from attempting suicide.
Depression-
Or you can write about your depression, what you feel when you're around people who just dont understand, or whether someone does understand and is one of the only people.
There are only 2 rules no sticky caps, and in the authors notes of your poem either write Depression or Dark love which ever your poem is about.
