I'm going into my Senior year of High School which is a very exciting and nerve racking experience for me and all my friends. I am also celebrating my one year anniversary with my High School Sweetheart on Tuesday..so I'm in the mood for some good graduation, love and leaving love kinda poetry. so here's the choices:
1. Write about your graduation, what you were feeling, how you think your gonna be feeling or how you are feeling if it's in a few days. I want emotional, tear-jerking poems people!!!
2. Write about a High School love that made a mark on your life in a positive or negative light....a high school sweetheart that changed your life in some way.
3. Write about a heartbreak that is going on in your life right now, it would be awesome if it was involving a situation with graduation or your high school sweetheart but it can be any heartbreak what so ever...if you want....I want to cry...
the RULES:
~Swearing is alright...but keep it to a minimum.
~Any form, any length.
~prewrites are allowed but make them GOOD...and if you enter a prewrite..write me alittle note in the author comments about why you wanted to enter this poem.
~Make it full to the brim with emotion please
I want to feel your hearts!!
~HAVE FUN! Remember the good times, the bittersweet times
the memories...
Thanks to all those who enter.

This contest sounds great, I have a poem about my whole senior year, about love, graduation, but its mostly negative, the ending has a positive outlook but, I'm nost sure if it fits into this contest, is it okay to enter it?
-
P.S.
I'm going to try to enter the poem, but if it doesnt fit just let me know and I'll remove it, I thought Id give it a shot.

I'm graduating from high school this Sunday, and I'll tell you now, your senior year is the most important year of your high school career. I'll also tell you this: things will change as the year moves on as you discover more about yourself as well as your friends. Trust me, graduation and the real world will be knocking on the door before you know it, and you have to be ready to handle them and everything that comes with it all. As a result of all this, I wish you good luck in your senior year both academically and romantically.
Oh yeah, I'd also like to add that my senior year was one of the best years of my life, as well as the most challenging. You will discover this as well as I did.

yea go for it...it can be negative....i just want emotion. Thanx for commenting!

Can I enter more than once? I want to write one as a tribute to my own high school love, and another to my boyfriend's best friend who got dumped by his. 
Thanks! Great idea for a contest! Good luck everyone!

Well, I already entered twice because I saw that someone else had, but if only one is allowed, I'll take one off. Thanks again!

I entered my prewrite "Inspired by One" because the subject I wrote it on matched your second choice almost perfectly! I really like the poem and I hope you do too.
