hey there everyone, this is my first contest so here we go.
alright now, i have a few choices, but seriously don't limit yourself to just these if you have something that is pretty awesome, go ahead and I'm me or comment on here and I'll think about letting you in...lol. but I'm looking for some really good stuff here, not just the typical poems and lyrics, something unique and different...
well here are the choices...
1.i know how being teenage can suck like way bad, so give me something about why it sucks and all that sort of good stuff... and i mean good stuff, not "oh god, my life sucks because i don't have any friends, or my boyfriend dumped me" something real, OK
2.love basically is really lame, and is really confusing, so write something about that, but not something all mushy and that kind of stuff.
3.write about just giving up, saying a i quit and giving up on life, tell me why though, but give me your reason and how you give up, and why it could never get better
4.write about parents, sometimes they really suck, they just don't understand, or maybe they're fighting or just being major fucks in general
5.write about current problems in society, not like i hate bush or i hate Kerry poems, but serious issues, poverty,war, discrimination...etc.
6.OK yeah, if your poem that you feel that you just have to enter in something doesn't apply to those I'm me or leave a comment on here and I'll let you know if you can submit it or not.
OK rules....
1.no sticky caps, i.e.- HeY tHeRe
2.use spell check, seriously...not that hard, if i find a misspelling I'll let you know and give you a few days to change it, and if you don't you'll be disqualified
3.i don't care about profanity as long as it's not like every other word
4. only 2 entries per person
5. please don't enter something really bad...lol
yeah this is pretty simple so have fun and give me some really awesome stuff!
:::love always:::
melodie
UPDATE:
ok, well i'm not getting quite what i wanted so hmm... ok look at some Taking Back Sunday lyrics and write something like that, not about the band or about a song or using a line from a song, but write something in their style... ok go for it!!!!

alright, go for it..

haha

I have a good one, but it's not a poem exactly. Most people enjoy it; it's my most commented on, and in the style I write least in. It's called Sweet Heart, so if you would check it out, I'd appreciate it.
-
oh shoot I just submitted the wrong poem! opps! how can I delete that one and put the right one in it?!
-
i'm not sure but just go ahead and enter the one you wanted to...
-
I love TBS
But you have lots of entries, good luck everyone! -
go ahead and enter, the more the merrier!
-
I entered my poem " embrace " into your contest. I believe it fits into your category 2 quite well.....I hope you enjoy it.
Love to you ,
james
