Option 1: Teenage Issues
Ever felt, when you were a teenager, that no-one understands, and the worlds sucks, and you just want to die? Let all that anger out. Whatever is making teenager's lives difficuly. Be it because people treated you differently or you just hate everything. Write your heart out to the world, just letting out all your problems and anger and worries and let me FEEL the pain.
Option 2: Sad Love Poems
Ok, I know there are alot of sad love poem out there, but I'm going to be a little specific. Only teenage poems on:
1. Having a crush, only to find that the person already has a girlfriend
OR
2. Cheering up someone who just got dumped
OR
3. Being rejected by someone you like
OR
4. Your friend also really likes the guy you like and you don't want to lose your friendship
Make it firsthand, which means that the person you like is the first person you've ever felt so seriously about.
Let me feel the pain, the anger, the pressure or whatever you're going to take me through. Make it real - I want strong emotions, not just OMG I miss you so much, or Life sucks, I want to die. I want WHY you miss the person, WHY the world sucks so much. Dig deep into your heart and show me what you've got.
RULES (you knew this was coming, didn't you?)
1. No swearing (unless you really need to, to get that feeling)
2. Be nice to the caps lock key
3. No long stories
4. Sorry, but no adult poems please
5. Try not to cliche
6. Please check your spelling and grammar
7. HAVE FUN! Please!
Points will increase with number and qualities of entries. I'll try to comment on all the poems. I'm only allowing prewrites because I know some of people's best poems are prewritten, but if people start entering pieces they've entered in a whole lot of other contests that don't fit the criteria, then I'm going to have to close that option. Tell me what option you chose in your AN

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on June 13
- Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 90, Honorable mention: 2 people
- Final notes: First of all, well done to everyone. The turn out was higher than I ever expected, and I'm sorry it took so long for the results to come out. There are some definite talents here, I can tell you that.
I had the hardest time chosing my award winners, especially between gold and silver. In the end, I judged on 1 condition: simple strong raw emotion.
Crushed is an amazing poem about despair. Really, I can't describe it. You have to read it to see yourself.
Youthful Disaster is a very interesting piece. Focusing on all the different problems of life. I strongly suggest you read it if you haven't already.
My Obsession totally blew me away. With such simple words the author narrated a sweet and sad story. It's long, but, trust me, it's hard to turn away.
Thank you so much to everyone who entered. This is certainly an experience I will never forget. Keep writing
