Heart Wrenching

Okay, so I'm back again with another contest. But this time, I need you to do me a favor. I've been really.. Blah, lately. I feel sad and upset about losing my best friend, and I'm kind of lost at sea here.. I don't know how I truly feel..

So my goal for you is to enter a poem that you think will make me
-cry
-feel emotion
-relate to
-fall in love

I want something true, something deep. Make it amazing.
Prewrites are allowed. I don't care what it is, just make me feel..

Few short rules.
1) No chat speak. It drives me crazy.
2) No Sticky Caps. It drives me crazy.
3) No bashing. It's mean.
4) Author name in AN please. If I like your work, I want to find more.
5) It's your poem, take it where it goes, show me what something true.
If not, I reserve the right to DQ anyone who is dumb or ignorant.
6) I will judge accordingly on how I feel. I won't hold back on good or bad, If
you're scared, don't enter. I don't want to hurt your feelings.
7) Have fun please

And if you need inspiration, you can use the picture above if you must.

Good luck,
& go.
