Saving me

okay this is about saving others. Whether it be you and your soul. drug addiction. Vampires and werewolves. I am being really lenient on this... there is a fairly good amount of points being put up here so therefore make it worth me shelling out over 1,200 points.

All so this is for me to. I feel like I am slowly losing my grip on reality. and I am only 17 (in 3 weeks I will be 18) and that is rather sad. I graduated a month ago, decided to take a year off college. My entire family hates me for it. I just want to feel like it is worth all this bullshit. I have a boyfriend but, he only helps so much. So, I guess what I am trying to say is...SAVE ME!

Rules:

I don't want any dirty pretty.
Or AnY oF ThIs.

I am allowing all different kinds of writing.
-poems
-epics(but lets be reasonable)
-pre-writes(okay now if you have allready won something on a prewrite don't submit it! I want original work)
-free verse(this is what I do so I understand it)
-erotica(label it please...and really fire it up for me)


Please, please, please for the love of Pete Wentz spell check. I mean it if I can not read it, it will be disqualified.

write your name in the authors notes, along with a little explaination of your entry...I would appreciate it.

    Tell your family that you are simply doing what students in the UK routinely do nowadays - i.e. taking a "gap year" between school and university. Normally now they work for six months or so - and then spend the next six months travelling the world...

    The universities much prefer it that way - it means they receive an intake of young adults, rather than overgrown schoolchildren, as one of my professor acquaintances put it.

    I am not sure that I have anything appropriate in my files that I can enter for your competition - but I do wish you well with it.. and with all your efforts.

    Um suffering in silence it is

    I can quiet feel what is going on with ur life u feel empty and like nothings inspire or helps tou move forwards....maybe it a weaponless enemy thas looking for you and is hidding behind the shadows....but dont give up loo around to everythings that is obvious...maybe ur silently crying out for help but sometimes in order for ur voice to be heard and your feelings to be recognize and accepted u need to scream and stay firm and move forward ...just keep on going to see where life takes u but dont let your life come to a stay still; else you will ceratainly loose yourself...embrace the present your happies memories and move forward..
