To say goodbye

This is a contest for all the hurt, for all the unloved, and for all the broken.

IF YOU ARE NOT SERIOUSLY ONE OF THESE PLEASE DONT ENTER

Im hurting right now,ALOT,I'm not coping...at all. I'm not even sure I can pull through this one.

I want to feel someone elses pain for a while. I want to know if i can help someone else indifferent of the fact that Im not sure I can help myself.

I dont care if you write free verse or ryhme or even chant (god forbid) i dont care if its a letter song or speech. I just want honesty.

If your hurting, if you know what its like to feel broken and bent,to feel pain beyond understanding and to snap. If you doubt your sanity sometimes, if you dont think you can go on, Im asking you,begging you,please enter.

Entries can have anything to do with any kind of pain sadness betrayal sad love suicide lost love brokeness darkness ect ect. please specify in the authors notes.

i dont want to know about the light at the end of the tunnel if its corny and unbelieveable but if you think you can show me real hope please do.

no sticky caps
try to use adequate gramma

If you want a prompt here

"And from the depths of despair emerges only the most persistent and broken of people, those who perished were weak and lucky....those who emerge are strong and lucky....those who are stuck bound for all eternity....they.....they are the strong, the weak, the persistent, the broken and the hopeless all wrapped up in one......they are............the lost."
