I Feel like Myself more Than Ever When...

READ THE RULES! READ THE RULES!

The title is the prompt.
Here it is again: I feel like myself more than ever when...

so here are the rules
1. no cussing
2. no erotica
3. write the word "dazzle" in the author's notes so I know you read the rules

Dirty pretty is welcome, as are basically all forms of poetry. I like haiku, rhyme, free verse, pretty much everything. Just follow the rules and have fun. Write me something beautiful and original. I don't want to read the same poem over and over again. Also, I don't want too much of the lovey dovey ooey gooey stuff. Some of it is okay, just not too much.

    I feel like myself more than ever when I'm embraced in her loving arms. But I find it hard to comprehend just how someone holding me so close can feel so far away.

      Dirty Pretty

      It's where presentation and punctuation are used to .a.c.c.e.n.t.u.a.t.e. (e.g) the major points of a poem, often an emo theme, the lines or verses may be spread and displayed in a particular pattern down the page. Wickipedia has a better definition than this, but this is my interpretation. You'll know it when you come across it
