For this contest I want imagery. I want to know what you think when you hear a certain song. Every detail of what comes to mind. Something unique, something that I can see even if it's not really there. I want to be drawn into your poem to the point I read it over and over. I will comment on all of the poems if possible.

sadly i only listen to the birthday massacre lately so I cant do this, I would be thinking too much of different sngs and couldn't be inspired by these.
Nice playlist though.
-
-
Thank you. If I don't get many enteries though... I may allow people to pick their own song so...

Eyes Turning on Me
I can't see who wrote this poem, but the site will not let me view it because of my age.... -
Saddly,
I really hope you can read it! -
My Poem: Eyes Turning on Me
Yeah, it's to the same beat. It's really just what would happen if someone sang the Skillet song to me.
-
-
Thank you very much for clarifying...
-
-
Yay!
Yay! It's extended!! Which means more time for me to write... i haven't started it yet 'cause i'm too busy with school and whatnot... i really wish to join this contest, but i still haven't got a clue on how to start/write it.. I chose the song Everybody's Fool by Evanescence, it's one of my fave songs and i love Evanescence! -
-
School does keep one busy and I understand. That's actually one of the reasons I extended the dead line. I wish you luck in the contest! =)

Wow I love your song choices! I'm feeling really uninspired at the moment though. So I'm going to give it a go, but may end up just giving up!
