everyone loves an options contest :]

Options 1: SONG TITLES:
--
just as a heads up.. if you choose this option i expect the entries to be FABULOUS! cause these are most of my favourite songs.
so pleaaase don't give me bad writes for this.

you CAN use the title of the song as the title of your poem; but it's not necessary just make sure you put it in your AN

i caught fire (in your eyes)
now or never
never too late
kryptonite
smoke and mirrors
unbound
aerials
seize the day
thunder
last call
afterlife
lost
this is how i disappear
hero
edge of the earth
over and over
high hopes
be my escape



Option 2: Haiku

for this option I would like you to write me a haiku (5-7-5 form) and id like at least 2 haikus within the same poem.. if you don't understand what i mean by this just msg me or look at one of my poems called 'Mistaken Identity' I wrote it a while back.. but it should give you the idea.



Option 3: Photo,

basically, i suck at finding pictures so i'd like YOU to find one and use it as inspiration. if you can put the picture in your poem and credit/link in your AN or just put the link in your AN.




Option 4: Emotional

i want you to vent to me. give your your anger, sadness, depressing, heartbroken writes. [no happy stuff.. sorry] make it really emotional and beautiful
