Welcome 
This is my 5th contest I know what I want, its simple, just make sure you follow the rules.
The choices I have picked, I can relate to one way or the other, and it effects my everyday life. I've been through a lot, so I would like for your poem to be real, if not, at-least make me think its real.
Choices
1. Tell me about losing a best friend, or the love of your life to death. Give me some detail, and show me how you feel. Make me feel your pain, make me want to reach out, and hold you, and cry with you.
2. Write about Depression, Anxiety, Pills, Cutting. Tell me why you do it, why you cant stop doing it, and just make me feel your pain. I relate to the Depression, Anxiety, and Pills, but a lot of people I know cut too.
3. Write about being lonely, about being unhappy. How people judge you, and wont give you a chance.
4. Write about wearing a mask. Who you're deep inside, and why you hide yourself. Not many people know the real me, so I understand. Let it all out, make me feel what you feel.
Rules:
1. Not to much cursing, no erotica
2. It HAS TO BE a poem, don't make it to short, I don't like short poems, but don't make it to long either.
3. In your author comments write "Feel what I feel" and then describe to me, just where you got your poem from.
4. You don't have to comment on mine or others, but it would be nice.
5. Not more then 2entries. I'm not allowing prewrites unless I have to, because I always get things that I don't want.
2nd and 3rd place might get points, depending on how good they are
Thank you

I have a poem I would love to enter... but it is a prewrite, so if you would like to you can go visit it. I would love to hear your opinion. It is called "Sufferings" I wrote it the other day after I became upset with everyone and everything, depression runs deep in my veins. Great idea for a contest, and good luck to you and all who enter.

I have a prewrite that I think would fit in this contest so well. Oh well maybe you can check it out it's called "The True Me".
Well g2g

It'd be better if you came up with an original, but I will check it out.

I had the best poem for this contest. Unfortunately, I posted the poem before I saw this, so I guess I won't be able to enter. It was under choice #2, the cutting/suicide option. If you would like to see it, it's titled "Of Razors and Raindrops" (nobody has really read it yet anyway, so...) And I lost my first and best male friend to the war in Afghanistan, but that's already posted too. I don't know if I feel inspired enough to write another original about anything, but since you have loneliness as an option again, I suppose I will try that one. I hope I will have something to enter this time. Take care, and have fun with the contest.
Many blessings,
Raven Aurora

Hi there BabyMya
I've also entered this contest...
It didn't seem that difficult to me to write a poem about one of the choices you wanted...
So I made one of feeling lonely and unhappy because of the people that judge me because I'm gay...
I hope you like this entry...
I wish you good luck to judge this contest... I think it will be very tough, cause I've read already some other entries and some of them are really good

I think its quite weird that only you were having trouble with the contest. Its a given that its for poetry, and I didnt post it on 'Story write' whatever that is. I dont like stories, and I dont write them, nor read them. Sorry if I sound rude, but before you come on here, and try and be smart, put on some glasses and read correctly because it says PAIN not PAINT

please take off "how i feel."thanks
