With this contest I am looking for poems that will leave me feeling your pain from an experience you have endured.
I am looking for poems that are of the same category as the poems of mine below.
unhappily wedded bliss
Family intervention
Anika's story part 1
Anika's story part 2
Anika's story part 3
No rules for this contest but if you are going to use sticky caps please be a little sparingly.
Extra credit if you can write a piece that fits in with "Anika's story 1-3" from another point of view, brother/friend etc, but it needs to still hold as much emotion within the poem as Anika's story1-3.
The contest will be extended so it runs for a month when it gets closer to the current closing date to allow for more entries.
1 final note and poems that were entered into my 1st contest which was very similar to this one will be removed from this contest to be fair to others that are entering.
Thankyou for looking at the contest and hope that you enter.
