I entered four that you've probably already read, but they are my favorite that I've written.

Hehe
Well, there seems to be alot of "emo" poets in here which is a tad immature for my taste, but I also noticed one little issue. The title of your contest is grammatically incorrect. It should be "Best Poem(s) You Have Ever WRITTEN." You had two different tenses in the same sentance and that is not correct. I don't know if you can change the title, (or if you want to for that matter,) but it seems to me that you would be getting higher quality entries and more mature entries if you were using proper english.
Just a hint.

nobody's perfect in this world. sometimes, we make grammatical mistakes. we get the idea of what it means. whoever knows and wants to enter can enter. if people don't enter because of a grammatical error in the title, then they don't want points that bad.

Well, this site didn't used to be all about the points. At one point we were all here because we wanted to improve ourselves. I know no one is perfect, the world would be dreafully boring if we all were. I was simply pointing out an error that may have been overlooked. I myself always ask people to help me look for such errors in my work. But then again, I am a perfectionist raised by an english major!! You can see how it would get in the blood. hehe

Yes
I see where you are coming from... honestly at first that is how i had it, but it just did not look right to me, never second guess your self...
If its that big of a deal to people then i can change it, but really I dont see it as a problem.
I love getting peoples advice, but that just came out of you a little wrong. I believe thats what i was trying to say and wht dawnoflove was trying to say

Oh goodness.
I didn't see how many entries you had, now I feel a bit guilty for entering and making your job harder.
Good luck judging, I hope you like reading the entries! You've got so many of them! -
No worries~ Nice Contest!!! Whoot! you rock` it was a lot to read... I'm sure deciding wasn't that easy either! Congrats to all the top poets!
Thanks for the fun!!! Whoot!
