I Want You To Tell Me A Story.

Okay dudes and dudettes. I haven't been on here for a while, and I want some inspiration for my writing. I have a couple of rules, nothing major, but really what I'm looking for is, as my title says, a story.


It can be real, it can be made up, but make it something that is meaningful to you, in poem form please. I don't want some story-story, where you just write it with no clean formatting.


RULES:

1. Check your damn spelling.
2. No, and I mean absolutely no suicide, 'oh he broke my heart and now I want to die' shiz. Meaningful, not suicidal.
3. I'll think of more.



Enjoy.

    Well a prose could be considered a poem. Would that work for this contest?

    Thank You

    Hi, I've been kind of flakey with AP lately, had a lot of other stuff on so i'm not sure if I thanked you for the gold. So here it is, thank you! Means a lot to me to get gold, I like to know others like my words.
