All You Need Is Love


Prize:
The winner gets 1500 gold.

Entry Fee:
To enter this contest you have to hand over 50 gold

Deadline:
This contest ends Saturday 11th August 12.00 London time. The winner will be announced on Sunday 12th August.

Description:
Lets get bohemian. Love poems are something everyone most probably have written at some time. Love poems are one of the biggest cliché ever, and in this contest we are not trying to avoid it, we run head first right into it.

Rules:
I give you nothing, and out of this you make a right-on-love-poem. The poem must be written from you to somebody, and this somebody must be a human. I know you can love a dog and so on, but this time stick to humans. The poem must have at least 20 words, and is allowed to be as long as you like. No graphic sex, swearing is permitted but must be partially blanked (eg. sh*t). Homosexuality is permitted. No text talk, please. You can post comments on entries here as well, but no flaming or spamming.

You have to PM me you entry and post a copy of it here on here.

You are not allowed to post your poem before August 4th 12.00 London time.

This is because we want many competitors. Its easy to scare people from trying if they see all the entries already posted.

Only one entry per user. If you want to change your entry notify me by PM.

Good luck to you all, and do not forget its all about love.

I know we got atleast one grammar nazi in here, dont kill me for this post.

It's not very good, but this is the best I could come up with. Hope you like! And sorry it's so short, I tried to keep it effective.

[Untitled]

If I lived to be seventy
Or if I died a child
I know I could die happy, for
Just once, for me, she smiled.
I have held no richer treasure,
I have felt no sweeter bliss
Than one second in her diamond eyes,
A single stolen kiss.

Sylv, this must be as cliche as it gets. whee

Quote:
If only

If only you knew.
If only you knew the relief the world gave to me once you left.
If only you could hear my shoulders sigh once the burden was lifted.
If only you could smell all of the flowers I once gave to you.
If only you could smell them all, all of the flowers you passed right by.
If only you could see my eyes once you turned the corner.
If only you noticed, maybe just once, how many needles you shot into my dead heart.
If only you could know.
If only you could know how I now understand you.
If only you knew how much I wished you could just look at me and understand.
If only you understood me!
If only you could taste the blood once shed for you.
If only you tasted it, if only you tasted the crimson pool in which you stepped but never acknowledged.
If only you acknowledged, if you acknowledged the empty seat in which I sat and cried.
For you, I cried.
If only you knew…
If only you knew, if you knew how much you were loved.
If only you knew how much
I loved you.

Orbs

Two torches,
Two flaming orbs of fire,
Twirling and twisting
Swirling over and under in unison.

Two souls,
Two orbs flaming with desire,
Ducking and diving
Touching and sparking, dancing in harmony.
