I like most poetry. I do not like sticky caps or dirty pretty. Not a lot of cussing. Other than that I am cool with anything...This is my first contest so bear with me if it is not up to par. If anyone wants to enlighten me on how to have better contests, feel free to send me a message. Just use any of the following lyrics as inspiration and write me a poem. Please list which prompt you use in your author notes. Thanks
Prompt 1 - I keep letting you back in, how can I explain myself? As painful as this thing has been, I just can't be with no one else...Ex-factor Lauryn Hill
Prompt 2- A name is written on a broken rock, a broken heart that the world forgot...Concrete Angel Martina McBride
Prompt 3- I love you more today than yesterday, but not as much as tommorrow...(don't know who sings it)
Prompy 4- Dream a little dream of me...Mama Cass Elliot
Prompt 5- When I see you cry, it makes me smile...Smile Lily Allen
Prompt 6- I'm tired of fighting, fighting for a lost cause...Lost Cause Beck
Prompt 7- Now that I have found someone, I'm feeling more and more alone than I ever have before...Brick Ben Folds Five
Ok...I guess that is enough prompts for a first contest.
