I want to see what they mean, and to write the lines inbetween.
I would like to win a few more golds, if only my words commited to do as told.
I have a form I love to follow, other ways to write are hard for me to swallow.
I can not simply pick up a pen and do what is asked, I must always speak whatever is lacked.
I want to be a strong soul in the world of pens, however I just can't compromise my glory I hold within.
I know to win is everyones goal, I just love to write to empty and renew soul.
Every single moment in time is worth a write of some sort, every word leading to a new port.
I am not sure this writing will be what someone wanted to read today, but I know it will be the writing I needed to say.
I shall never compromise the way I write for the sake of a win, and I shall never conform to a new way to begin.
You may not like what I put down on my paper, but I am only teaching my writing to be my savior.
Author notes
i wasn't sure what i should write but this flew out of my head those who enjoy it great those who dont read something else

Returned Favor
So, you are driven to write and feel strongly about writing however and whatever you want. If I have read the sentiments expressed in your poem correctly and it is truly the way you feel, I would be wasting my time in any serious critique.
Good luck in the contest and in your poetry.

I like this. I like how you have stated your personal feelings for writing and the fact that you won't conform just to take a 'gold', but will write the way that is best for you. Well said, well worded.
Good luck in your contest.
