Northern Downpour--Make Me Want To Cry

Anger. Hurt. Sadness. Depression. Lost Love. Suicidal. Revenge. Pain. Agony.

Here's how it's going to work:
Option 1--
Chose a quote, any quote, from this website. http://shhylahh66.tripod.com/id2.html
There are plenty of options to chose from!
Write a poem based on the quote. I don't want copies of the quote, I want responses to the quote. Write the quote you chose in the AN.


Option 2--
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3TvJ350g8Q
Write a poem based on the song Northern Downpour by Panic! at the Disco
It's really a wonderful song and I want to hear your responses.

Notes/Rules:

The overall prompt is dark poetry. If it's not dark, sad, depressing, or about hurt in any way you will be DQed. I'm at a point in my life where unfortunately, dark and sadness is what I am facing right now. I would love to hearother dark poetry.
The usual AP rules:
~No sTiCkY cApS---what is the point of them? they're just annoying
~Cursing is allowed to a certain degree. It is frankly annoying to read cuss after cuss on every line, but feel free to pour out your heart using whatever language you choose, but keep it to a minimum, got it?
~No bashing!!

Other than that, enjoy this contest and give me some great dark poetry!
Can't wait to read it!

    PatD always finds a way to make me feel, although with some of their older stuff it just makes me feel insane XD
