Skeletons in the Closet?

Okay this is a contest for all those that want to get something off their chest.

I dont care what it is, love, hate, sexual, pain, confessions.
Maybe telling your parents that your gay, or a family member abused you. Or even that you killed someone.

It doesnt have to based on yourself, but I would prefer that, makes the poem have so much more impact.

I will say that I do also prefer dark, sad and powerful poems. But as long as they are descriptive and follow the rules then they are elegible for trophies.

okay the rules....

1)Has to be some kind of secret or confession.
2)Dont worry about what kind of style it is, I like all kinds. As long as they are written properly.
3)Swearing is fine, they are the main words that make up my sentences.
4)Punctuation and spelling can be a big thing, it may be what stops you from winning.


I will say that pre-written poems are allowed, I know that are many good pieces out there that would be perfect for this contest, but new ones will be noted and much appreciated.

But please do not enter a poem that has won a trophy, I would like to give a chance for those that havent won before.

Goodluck
