Act Apalled, And Listen To The Past

Alright my last contest didn't really get a good turn out this ones worth more points then the last one and a little easier.

I want poems about the past, drugs, regret, dreams, love, heartbreak, abuse, depression, or self-harm. I don't want weird typeing LiKe ThIs. Its annoying and just plain dumb. Pretty much I want the best any of you can do. Show me your emotion. Show me a hidden secret hidden subliminaly in your words. Show me you past, future, or present. Lay it all out.

Should be pretty easy.

Rules:
Spelling doesn't matter
Be creative
Be honest
Be yourself
Give it everything
NoNe Of ThIs
Label adult stuff the way it should be

no real rules really.

    Sorry I'm like 3 days late on judging. I didn't get a chance to comment all of the poems I will be commenting them since everyone's poems were amazing it was hard to judge. You all did a mighty fine job. I'd like to thank you for entering my past contest was unsuccessful. Every single one of you has inspired me in someway. But the finalist are the ones that hit me deep inside. Thank you everyone once again. Everyone had alot of passion in their writes.
