31 Words or Less With A Prompt.

In 31 words or less I want you to try and make me so depressed I want to kill myself.


Sounds a little wierd but just go with it alright?


Please, please, please don't write about lost love, it doesn't make me sad, it just makes me want to hit you over the head with a shovel.


Metaphor and imagery are your friends, love them.


Be inventive,
write well.


Play nice.



And no Chantell, I'm not emo. I could hear that thought from here

      Good to know I'm not the only one.
      There's only so many times I can read about how 'they broke my heart' before I just want to slap them and tell them to move on (though I know it's not that simple).
      Jaded, who me?

          That's when I break out the cyanide and ask if they want a cup of tea
          Love is a wonderful thing, but it doesn't mean every freakin poem has to be about how wonderful they are.

        Oh no you ain't alone. If you need another person to be happy what exactly are ya offering them if on ya own you are a misery. Have yet to see evidence that 'love', more like the concept of being in love, solves depression

          Don't get me wrong, there are one or two poets who write love poems that I like (hell some I even love). But I don't want to wade through the cliche crap to find more.
          But you're exactly right, you need to be content in yourself to be in a relationship that will work. Or at least that's how I've found it to work. But hey, I'm not exactly relationship queen.

          Not too bad,
          a little 'blah' feeling but nothing major.
          In need of coffee though
          How're you going?

            I've got some homework - and my mom is here
            for a week, but hey - good to wake up in the morning and someone next to you actually makes it feel like home.
