This contest is NOT about unrequited love.
This contest is NOT about lost love.
This contest IS about love that makes you suffer.
Explanation:
I am in love. With a most beautiful creature, about whom I have written many poems. There is a problem with this, and not in the way she perceives: she loves me back, but her parents are less open-minded. We live so close, and yet, because of them, so very, very far.
I want poems written about a situation somewhat like mine--Romeo and Juliet themed, if you will. Or, perhaps, a poem about other struggles, obstacles, problems, tough love, etc. If you want to enter something that is not specifically described above, consult me, I am pretty flexible.
I AM LOOKING TO SEE SOME AWESOME POEMS! Long, short, free verse, form, whatever. As long as it fits, it is acceptable. I PREFER POEMS THAT TELL A STORY OF SOME SORT, but they are not required, and they are not automatically going to win.
Good luck, I can't wait to see some beautiful things!
~Isalie~
PLEASE, DO NOT FRET!
I AM NOT COMMENTING ON THE POEMS THOROUGHLY YET!
RATHER THE ONES THAT HAVE ERRORS TO CORRECT!
THE DETAILS SHALL COME, I PROMISE!
FOR RIGHT NOW I'M JUST BEING HONEST!
TIDY I'D LIKE TO SEE THIS CONTEST!
THANK YOU!

Great idea!
Hihi,
Really like the idea of this contest! I've entered one of my prewritten poems that I *think* fits the criteria of this contest. Sorry if it doesn't ^^ but yes, you can do whatever if you think I've got the wrong idea ... ^^ ;

-
Thank you! I would better be able to tell if I knew which one, but I think I'm going to be more lenient in any case.

-
I wrote the poem I entered 'Circle of Love' to enter in this contest but went off track a bit, so it's not quite what you asked for. However, after coming back and looking at some of the other entries I decided to give it a whirl anyway.
-
Hey i love the idea of this contest, i was getting sick of the 'Tell me how perfect love is' contests on here! i have just enterd a poem into your contest, whch i hope will fit to what you were hoping for, but im sorry if its not, its more about the struggles i have rather thn it being forbidden.hope thats ok, if not jst get rid lol, thanx xx
