Broken promisses...

Write me about how you feel when your lover brakes his/her promisse...

Does it hurt you?
Don't you care?
Are you going to do the same?
Do you get angry?

Let me feel your emotions...

PLEASE FOLLOW THE RULES:

Explain a little about what happened in your authornotes so I get the idea...

Please put your AP name there too...so I know who you are...

Place it in the right category!!!!


I have the right to DQ your poem if the rules aren't followed...but because I am not a bitch I will send a warning at first




Well, since the contest was closed on the 12th I am going to read all of the poems, comments and applauds are part of that job...please be patient with me because I am going through some rough times and it might take me a little !!!!! ( read long)

  • Final notes:
    Hello to you all, first I wanna thank you all who followed my rules...I really appreciated that.....I had a hard time judging this contest...in fact I decided you all were deserving a trophee ( except the ones that didn't follow the rules..sorry but I thought that was fair to the ones who did all things right)
    I read a lot of sadness coming out of love...I guess nobody will ever get an answer on why that is....
    I really do hope you all found love in some way....and I do hope you enjoyed this contest too...I know I did although it took me some time to judge and although it was really hard to judge. You all are wonderful poets and I do hope I will read you someday again...
    Congrats to all of you

    I am reopening a new contest for three of the poets...because I couldn't decide the first three...
