4 Options: First Love, Darkness addict, Rain, or your Almost Lover

Ok...so choose one of the four options below and put it in your authors note. I know that they are somewhat different from one another but deal with it, just choose one. I LOVE imagery. So if you want to win use a lot of it. I want the five senses used if possible...I want to feel how you are feeling inside of your soul.


1.
I want you to write about your first love. But only if that first love made a huge impact on your life. I don’t want any of the stupid relationships that lasted a few weeks. Give me something that lasted for a long period of time...something that was so passionate and beautiful it’s hard to even muster. I want to FEEL your words and SEE them and TASTE them!! Give me images that I can wrap my thoughts around.


2.
Ok...I want you to write about the darkness within you and how it can be addictive. You know what I mean if you’ve been through it. Don’t choose this one if you don’t get it.

3.
Talk about an experience you have had in the rain with someone who you are very close with. Give me romance and beauty!

4.

    I'll enter

    give me a little time to write something, there's no way i could write about the first, that'd hurt too much, but i should be very capable of the second.
