Some of you may or may not have heard of something called post secret. To me it is one of the most inspirational books I have read so far in my life. I've decided to come back to my old account for this one reason, to hold this contest.
Post secret is a book filled with anonymous secrets sent in around the world. Many brought tears to my eyes. In the journey of writing and sending secrets, they created a sense of bravery. And many saved lives.
I've had this inspiration thanks to my sister. Thank you.
Rules:
Here is the jest of it.
1) I DONT want you sending in poems. Not at all. All I want you to do is send in a piece of you, a secret. UPDATE: since so many people have been sending in actual poems, I'm going to let them count. People seem to have put a lot of thought and emotion into them, so good luck!
2) If this is too much for you, I am willing for you to send me a private message. So this can be as secretive as you want it, but in return I want you to write a poem about secrets. If you choose this, you MUST either give me the name of your poem in the message, or put your name in your AN
3) Be creative as you want, But I want it to be TRUE.
4) I’m not putting a limit on this, but the shorter the better.
5) I am going to be judging this on bravery. I won’t deduct points for sending anything privately. So this is all about the passion.
Last thing: This contest is going to depend on you. I want people to be serious, and depending on the results, it's going to make a difference about my continuation on this site. I want to feel that if everyone on here can share a little bit about them to me, then I'll continue contributing for everyone else.
But, if I do not get enough entries, I will close this and save it for later.

Question.
I just recently, actually, wrote a poem about one of my secrets and I'll say the secret in the author's note, but it's in poem form. -
