First contest,Four options, i'll love you forever if you enter?

This is for the Scars that will never heal;The hearts that will never mend;The people who will never be the same!

Option 1:
Write about love. I want it descriptive, very descriptive.Give me imagery. Make me feel the emotion within the poem. RAW EMOTION!

Option 2:
Write me about someone breaking your heart. This is my favourite option for sure. I'd love a good cry right now. Give me loads of emotion. I want the whole story.

Option 3:
What do you see when you look in the mirror. Write about who you see looking back at you every day. Is it the person you want to be or is it someone else? Either way i'd love to know how other people feel about themselves. Lots of imagery.

Option 4:
Choose a song by: My chemical romance,Simple plan, Nickle-back,Fall out boy, Pink or Go:Audio. and write about what that song tells you.. What do the lyrics mean to you? These are all bands that i love so i hope it to be good and no trashing their songs or i will D Q you

I will comment on all of the poems so even if you don't win you will get a comment on your poem?
I believe that background matters a lot so try and make it one that fits the poem.

BTW: i love love love love love Dirty Pretty poetry so you have a better chance of winning if you submit me some of that

Rules:
(ewe i hate this)
1: No Sticky Caps please, only because it makes it hard to read.
2:You can use swearwords i believe that i'm old enough now but please Don't just throw in a lot of random-swearwords, If i don't think they fit i will ask you to take it out.
3: I don't mind free-verse or rhyme but i do prefer rhyme as long as it's good and not really forced.
4: No erotica. I know i'm not old enough to see that.
5: Most importantly have a lot of fun with it and make sure it's something you like!

Please put your name in your authors notes and put **Heartbroken-Headcase** to show that you have read and understood the rules.

----------------------------Points will go up as i get them--------------------------------
IF YOU DON'T PUT YOUR AP NAME AND *HeartbrokenHeadcase** IN YOUR AUTHOR NOTES THEN YOU HAVE NO CHANCE OF GETING INTO MY FINALISTS LIST!!!!!!

    I Want -

    to enter your contest with a prewrite called
    "They Call Me Gorgeous"
    I believe it fits Option3 pretty well.
    if you won't allow it, then that's fine.

    Thanks,
    and I hope to hear from you shortly.
