Alright~ well, im bored, and have points to use...i was going to wait until i had well over 1,000, but im too impatient..so here's my contest!
There will be some choices to choose from. Please write about one or more of these topics.
***Choice No. 1 ***
Write about some lyrics from my favorite band- Minutes 'Til Yesterday-- dont worry, unless you live where i live, you have never heard about them, so here are some to write about:
-War on the Playground-
War broke out and spread like a disease that couldn't be stopped or marred. Lives changed, fortunes lost, but I guess thats fate on these hallowed grounds. People died,things broken, the thought of change couldn't be denied. Days are weeks, Months are years. This won't stop it just beats us down. Blood spills. Bodies Fall. The images burn into my eyes. I can't stop spinning around. We can't change the things we do. God forbid, we are men, men of honor. Lines are drawn. Sides taken. The fight for our lives is about to begin. Bells ring out as ambers fall. This is an end, an end to all. People wonder, wonder why things went wrong. The flowers died. What's so bad with the world today? People leave, the cannot stay. When the battles lost and won we'll be happy, it's finally done.
-Until-
I think it's time I go. There's nothing her for me. Don't blame yourself for me taking my wrists to this knife. I'm leaving. I'll take this bullet to my eye. I fight with in the dark of night. I've lost the battle but won the war. I'll stain the floor with my glory. I'm leaving tonight with this sweet and just suicide. I'm stopping my heart. This negative energy that flows through my veins has finally stopped.
-Collapse-
Tonight. This dream. A misconception of what is real. Do you understand me at all? Through your eyes and through the smoke I see the truth unfold and take this flame to my heart. I never want it back until the clouds fall down and leave me here bloodsoaked on the ground. Look at what you've done to me. You drove me to insanity. Be my guest. Burn it down. Burn this place to the ground. This knife in my back is killing me but I'm suffering from the hole in my heart. My lungs are full of tears. Betrayed for all these years. How could you do this to me? My friends are all I have but they stab me in the back and won't you please give me one more chance? It's driving me insane to know you're not the same anymore and I'll push your words into the wind. It's hard to breathe with your hands around my throat but I will escape with one last desperate blow.
~write about either how those lyrics make you feel, or you can go to mtyrock.com and listen to the songs.-(you may use any other song on their website as we;
- You may use excerps from a song in your poem..that'd be great.*can be in the form of lyrics..just dont steal the whole song 
~
***Choice No. 2***
Write about trying to help someone...but they wont let you in... You love them so much, and you feel helpless, because you dont know what to do.--
***Choice No. 3***
Okay--dark, depressing, suicide...i dont care.. ive been really depressed lately.. you can write about maybe how you are a self-injurer, maybe someone you know is and how it affects you, or whatever. Please don't give me sumthing like "Its bullshit to cut, you're only doing it for attention" etc etc... I really dont want to hear that, cuz it pisses me off
***Choice No. 4***
How you loved, or you thought, someone so much, it literally drove you mad. "Lovesick" is taken to a whole new level with this. *Erotica accepted*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alright.. so those are the topics.. now to the Rules~
~1~ Please place the topic number in your author comments.. it should be pretty obvious to me. But just do it.
~2~ You may use profanity, that doesnt phase me at all. Just make sure its not stupid cussing. Like "fuck you fuckers imma go fuck your mother fucking bitch life up" Got it? good.
~3~ If you choose topic No. 1, please place the song title in your author comments. Just so i know you didnt deviate from that group.
~4~ Dont enter excessive amounts of writes. I want a variety from people. The max. amount per person is 3 entries. I think thats fair enough.
~5~ NO PREWRITES!
~6~ I dont want to see forced rhymes. It makes me cringe.
~~~and i think thats all!~~~ Good luck, have fun, and i will try to comment on everyone's enteries.
Much love,
Ashley
P.S. Commenting on my poems wont get you 'brownie points' but it is always appreciated! Thanks.
