Another Sad Contest!!! {{Picture & Song Quote Inspired}}

I want some amazing poems for this.
I want to cry.
I want to feel utterly broken.
Give me that....


:: OPTIONS::

1. SONG LYRICS

a. "Love's not your loss
But it's nailed to my cross
And crucified all that I've held on
To be awaiting
Anticipating a touch such as yours"

'Through The Iris' by: 10 Years


b."They say time will
Make all this go away
But it's time that has taken my tomorrows
And turned them into yesterdays
And once again that rising sun
Is dropping on down
And once again you my friend
Are nowhere to be found"

'Walk Away' by: Ben Harper


c."I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Did I make it that easy
To walk right in and out of my life?"

'Almost Lover' by: A Fine Frenzy


d."I'm burning all my bridges with these matches I light
to illuminate my path to what is right
even if its true what they say
that you can't go back home once you've cast it away
I would still have left tonight
Baby I would be with you if I could
to trade my flesh for your bones
I would I would I would I would I would"

'Flesh For Bones' by: Terra Naomi


e."And I walked alone
Waiting for you to come along
Take my tortured heart by the hand
And write me off

Do you know I cry
Do you know I die
Do you know I cry
And it's not the good kind"

'The Good Kind' by: The Wreckers


f."To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do"

'Run' by: Snow Patrol


g."When can my heart beat again
When does the pain ever end
When do the tears stop from running over
When does “you'll get over it” begin....
When does my "someday" begin
When I'll find someone again
And what if I still am not truly over
What am I supposed to do then"

'When Can I See You Again' by: Babyface


h."I used to dream
Of better days that never came
Sorry ain't nothin' to me
I'm gone and that's the way it must be
So please I've done my time
Lovin' you is such a crime"

'Seeing Things' by: The Black Crowes
