Tempt My Heart - PW

Tempt my heart to shatter with your words. Tell me about something - make me feel SOMETHING, show me your a true poet. Depression - love - affairs - etc... nothing over done people. Unusual and ryhme earns big points from me.


Rules Rules - Wonderful and Dull -
1. NO terminal illness mention
2. Erotic's fine, no smut
3. Cussing is fine in moderation
4. No sticky capps etc and so forth.
5. Names are appreciated in author's notes, but won't determine a win Just like to add new favs

PLEASE for the LOVE OF MY SANITY do NOT enter a poem with every flipping line the same damn thing like

He made me cry
He made me die
He made me sigh

Oh and I have a short attention span so decent length.

I know, I know - I'm being picky this go around but if you'd only read some of the entries I've had before (sigh)


PS - The picture can be used to inspire if desired, but go off the painting it's self, or the title, not the story behind it

Opheilia - "He will not come again"

Thanks all for entering in advance.
