Anything to Inspire a Lost Soul

So I havent been to AP since last summer, then i got busy... but finally, here i am, back once again, my only problem is i've lost my touch.. Im not creative anymore, i have no inspiration, i have no real meaning to be back on here..
So heres a contest that gives you a chance to convince somebody that creativity isnt lost, its just hidden.. I want you to write me a piece so inspiring, so emotional, tragic, funny, creative, etc. that makes my mind trigger into a million thoughts.. i want to be able to write again and mean it.. Give me a reason to give AP another chance and not just leave completely..
Theres no limits, no setbacks, no rules.. Give me your best, thats all i ask.. Give me something I'll think about.. Give me a poem I'll never forget.



*sorry for moving the dats up, but i wont be able to judge after this point*

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on June 29, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 600, Silver: 400, Bronze: 200, Honorable mention: 17 people
  • Final notes:
    Thank you all for entering my contest.. The finalists are in order. Now do realize that this contest was to inspire me and so if you dont know me you kind of took a chance in entering. Most of the poems were the greatest I've seen, and others not so much. It took a lot of effort to decide and some of you (finalists) dont really understand how much inspiration you've given me. Once again thank you and have a Merry Day!
