Speaking On Trembling Lips

For this contest I want you to tell me about something that you hold secret in your heart that you are afraid to tell those who you love about. Whatever it is- if it's making your heart beat faster or slower...if it is there lurking in your subconsious and you fear the results of speaking these thoughts- I want to hear about them.

Please refrain from the use of sticky caps

Free verse or any verse is a-okay

Make it worth my while- yes, I want to hear your thoughts- but I would also like to witness good poetry while I am doing so. Please don't waste my time and points.

Write from the heart as all writers should!!!

Uno, dos, tres- ESCRITE!

  • Final notes:
    Thank you for your patience in my slow judging of this contest. (I am down with Mono ) Thank you also for all the spectabulous entries- this was a difficult contest to judge; especially considering the amount of personal thoughts put into these pages. So thank you all again and I wish you all find your paths of happiness in life.

    If I am afraid to tell those I love, why would I post it here, where I have friends that care about me and read it?

        They have been part of what makes me ..... me

        to pass them on to another will make them no longer my own.

          Understandable.
          But also, I don't think it would necessarily be "passing them on to another." Plus, you don't always have to tell your friends it's personal. Just inspired by a picture/movie/etc. Just a thought.

            I will try to give you a poem then.

            It will be hard to give over something as that about myself though.
