THE ULTIMATE LOVE STORY

Okay, so here's the thing. I kinda like this guy- like, more than I've ever liked anyone in my entire life. Pretty much to the point where I'm a bit obsessive and think about him non stop. It's actually a little scary. So, anyway, I've kind of been in agony over it, so I felt, why not hold a contest about it?!

I want your best, raw, emotional, honest, REAL love poem. I want the poem to be about being with someone; how they complete you, how you feel when you're around them, etc. I want the poem to drip emotion and love and ooze romance.

One thing- I don't want break-up poems. I really don't need to be reading that right now.

Some guidelines:

-No excess cursing
-No weird typing
-Spell check is your friend
-Can be short- but no longer than 50 lines, and if it is 50 lines it had better be worth reading; I don't like long poems
-I don't want a poem painting a sex scene before my eyes
-USE HONEST AND RAW EMOTION!

Pre-writes are welcome, but if you can give me something fresh I would greatly appreciate it. 2 enteries per person.

Now go, and write me something from the depths of your heart!

Best of luck to all,
[Liz<3]

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on February 15
  • Rewards: Gold: 400
  • Final notes:
    All I can say is- WOW. Never did I expect to have this many enteries- or this many GOOD enteries, for that matter. I'm sorry that I didn't comment on all poems- if you recieved a comment from me then that means that your poem was on my preliminary finalists list and was especially beautiful to me, but truly all 82 poems were wonderful. It was SOOOOOOOOO hard to judge this contest. All of you are extremely talented and helped me to work through some things by way of your poetry. Please look out for my next contest, and keep writing!
