Okay, so this is my first ever poetry contest i've decided to host, so please forgive me if it doesn't go according to plan. I hope to see many entries, and they must all be new.
The actual theme of the contest is what you feel when the ocean tides of love and heartache break over your dambs, and you can't bear to hold it back any longer, and you must do something about it. Tell me, in description a situation where this would apply to you, and how it makes you feel. I would love to see some good imagery and sensuality in all your writings.
Rules: Noone likes them, but they're necessary.
1. No poem bashing
2. Have fun.
3. PROPER TYPING, none of tHiS, got it?
4. Have fun
5. Hope to win, and be constructive to others in the contest.
Gold: 300 points
Silver: 125 points
Bronze: 50
