For The Deceased

Mkay so here's what's up:

As many of my school friends know, Catherine & Kaileigh both recently suffered losses. Kaileigh's brother died, and Catherine's mom.

For this contest I would like poems dedicated to someone who has recently lost a family member, or to the family member themselves.

It would be nice if you included who the poem is for in your author notes, but it isn't necessary.

Rules:

1. Prewrites allowed
2. Multiple entries allowed
3. No adult, erotica, abuse
4. If your poem does not fit this contest, expect to be DQ'ed

I will comment on all entries after the contest is closed, and HMs may be added later.

Have a good time writing!
