Unrequited Love

This is my first contest so please bear with me.

You may write a poem (of any kind) or lyrics.

The topic of your poem/lyrics should be about unrequited love or else you will be disqualified.

Please check your spelling and no sticky caps.

I will have one gold, silver, and bronze trophy and three honorable mentions.

Prewrties will be allowed, however, you cannot get a gold or silver trophy if you do sumbit a prewritten poem. This is not because the poem is not good, but it is just to make things fair. Please write "unrequited love" in the author notes so I know you read this.

I'm looking forward to everybody's entries and if anyone wants to enter this contest but needs more time, please feel free to let me know.
