The Enchanted Misery Contest

Welcome to another Raneika contest...

The current mood I am experiencing is a thin line between bliss and heartache ...hence the tittle of the contest and what I am looking for in your entries.

There is no limit to what you can enter...
I am looking for poems that show emotion ...like I like to always quote ...fill my cup of poetic juice! ...rather it be something joyful and pleasant or dark and sad.

Pretty much all is welcome!

No rules...
just enter your goods perhaps something unique.

Love, Raneika

XOXO
