~From the heart~

Contest is Over

• Contest was judged on February 20
• Rewards: Gold: 2000, Silver: 500, Bronze: 200, Honorable mention: 5 people
• Final notes:
  Yes, I know I ended this kind of soon, but I really got all the work I wanted.
  I got some poems about pain, some about love, some about cutting, some about losing someone, some about addictions, some about sex, and more. I loved everyones work! I may not be the only one who has ever said this, but I do with I could have given trophys to all of you. To my trophy winners, great job. Your poems really spoke to me, but everyone's did, in their own ways. Also, this was really hard to judge, there was so much wonderful work, it was really hard to decide. Great job, and I hope all of you will come back, when I host my next contest! Wonderful job to all
