First Poetry Competition

Unfortunately she’s right, you have to limit it to a maximum of 5 lines or it won’t count.

It’s a lovely poem, unfortunately I can’t accept it as it is since it needed to be less than 6 lines…

I narrowed it down to my favorite

Entry 1

It’s like I’m stuck on this road
With no where to go
It keeps going like it’s infinite
And there’s nothing to distract from it
It’s as if I’m on a treadmill and can’t seem to get off!

Sorry…

I just would hate to see such a great poem get eliminated because of the length!

I would have made my poem longer, too if I could…

It’s fine, I shortened it!

Third entry

Goodbye and hello
to all the good times and bad goals,
to all the strict rules and loopholes.
I guess it’s time to let go,
time to find something new.

my entry

Away, far far away…
Flying away, as time passes.
Hugs and kisses shared between
Between us, between the music,
And I’m pulled back into his arms again.

I’m not a romantic person, clearly… I tried :grin:

Just a few hours left to enter guys, so if you still want to enter do it before 2020-01-24T20:00:00Z

Oof looks like I missed this lol. Well in case I still have a chance here it is:

I say obeying is dismaying!

I say concluding is amusing!

I say supervision is subdivision!

I say money is junky!

To be dumb, they say, is freedom.

It’s time to vote! But before that I really want to thank everyone for the huge success this competition turned out to be :purple_heart:

    Roses are red :rose:
    Violets are blue :blue_heart:
    I’m bored even though, :yawning_face:
    I have so much to do :eyes:

    I’ve been trying to make right what’s been wrong,
    you’ve been trying to make wrong what’s been right.
    And everything just seemed so senseless at times.

  • @Rainbow’s second entry
    I wanna stand out of the crowd, but still be in it.
    I wanna go with the flow, but on a highway.
    I’m trying to be perfect, trying to be plain.
    Trying to be different, trying to fit in.
    Trying to be worth it.

  • @Annasilveroriginal’s entry
    Sometimes I still want to run
    Far, Far away toward the sun
    And feel the wind run through my hair
    Sometimes I still want to run
    And let all of my hardships, let them be done

  • @MeghanWrites’ entry
    I’m flying high,
    I’m running free,
    I’m being more than i thought I’d ever be,
    so come and ride,
    ride with me

  • @celestialkitten’ first entry
    I’m running fast,
    Faster then the ocean sea
    I’m running fast,
    And free.

  • @celestialkitten’ second entry
    If you haven’t noticed the scars on my hips
    Or the fake smile on my lips,
    Then just go talk behind my back
    None of it matters,
    None is true.

  • @AS007’s first entry
    The beauty of life – it’s both good and bad.
    It’s like a coin with two sides, copper-clad.
    Sometimes it’s good - selfless and generous.
    Sometimes it’s bad - merciless and envious.

  • @AS007’s second entry
    The flag of pride represents,
    A sea of beautiful diversity.
    Lesbian, Gay, Transgender, Bisexual.
    So, no longer denying the truth,
    That I, am asexual.

  • @celestialkitten’ third entry
    Too many steps in the wrong direction
    Running just to find protections.
    My mind fall of memories
    Like a collection
    Wrong choices, the wrong selection.

  • @anon93806337’s first entry
    Let’s go run all the way to
    A place where I can be me,
    And you can be you
    Where we can swim and never drown
    Because of someone dragging us down

  • @anon93806337’s second entry
    There once was a boy named Clair
    Who had very long hair
    His friends would say
    That he could be gay
    So he just turns and stares

  • @anon93806337’s third entry
    Oh they’re not like the others
    Doesn’t have light skin
    Doesn’t like girls, or boys, or none

This poll is gonna stay open less than a day, in general it doesn’t need a whole lot of time before we get enough votes in.

And yes, I’m gonna be the first one using the @Announcements tag. I hope no one minds but I want to get as many votes as possible :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::purple_heart: Sorry for the people who got notified twice now cause they entered the competition.

Hmmm, that might have to do with the fact I made this in the staff section and scheduled it to be moved here :thinking:
