closed for judging...LONELINESS.

Hi everyone.

this contest is about LONELINESS.




Loneliness is the feeling you get when you feel troubled about something and you feel like no one understands, and when you feel like you dont know what to do about troubled issues in your life that are personal or even hard to reach.

Loneliness is what you feel when you look around and realize that you really don't have any true friends, and your self awareness begins to brighten about all the things you really are lacking in your life.

Loneliness is when you have problems at school and people are turning against you because other people are saying lies, and no one believes you or the truth, and you have no one else to back your truth up.

Loneliness can be living on the streets with no one to turn to, no money, and no where to go.

Loneliness can be your lover walking out on you, or your own grown child walking away from you forever because you had a disagreement,

or loneliness can be loss of a loved one who was a great aspect of your life.

whatever your situation be, or your subject be, i am looking for emotion, tenderness, self awareness, conclusion, etc. i dont want to know about it, i want to feel it in your poem.

ok. so here are some options to help you out for ideas, however they are not expectations or things that you have to base your poem off. just ideas to use.
