Failure to comply with these rules will result in an instant removal of your nomination in this edition of the contest.


////////////////////////////////

Important Notes:

Once you enter your poem, YOU CANNOT EDIT IT OR REMOVE IT TO NOMINATE ANOTHER POEM YOU MADE! In other words... If you nominated your poem and then made a cooler one and wish to nominate the second, you can't do it. All nominations are final. BE SURE THAT YOUR POEM NOMINATION IS THE ONE YOU REALLY WANT, BECAUSE YOU WON'T BE ALLOWED TO CHANGE IT AFTER YOU'VE ENTERED THE CONTEST!

Changes in this Edition:

01. You must create a new poem for this contest.

////////////////////////////////

Nominations must be posted here before 8:00pm Eastern US Time (5:00pm Pacific Standard Time) on Thursday November 18th, 2004.

The winner of the contest will be determined by user votes and, if a tie occurs, by the DBZSC/NarutoC staff. The lucky fella will be posted permanently in a special topic of the forum, and will be plugged in the main page of DBZSC.com for recognition (With a link to the winning poem).

Get your poems ready, and good luck!

Title-My Reason

Description- This poem i wrote for a girl that i loved alot, all i wanted to do was tell her how much i cared but now i've come to realize that she never really wanted anything to do with me.It really hurts when someone pretends that they appreciate hving you around.Aw well at least this poem still stands strong as something to remind me how much i change my dark heart.

Please forgive me, I know not
what I did, I’m so sorry
I wasn’t able to see this.
How could I have known?
How could you have understood?
We both have our reasons,
and all they do is stay silent.

But yet in our eyes, there’s
a love so great, greater than
than the entire world could take.
I had never believed in love, I only
thought of hate. But baby, you’re
the reason I’ve changed. I used
to live a life of loneliness, hiding
in the shadows and darkness. For
the first time I came out in the light
and felt the warmth of everything in
sight because you gave me a reason to
live, you’re the reason I survived.



I don’t know if you’ll forgive me, you
were hurt too. But I’m trying to get
close to you to show you I need you
more than the world does. I’m sorry I
ignored you it was the wrong thing
to do. But every time we get close
something or someone always comes
between us two. Back then I thought
we were never meant for each other.
But now I realized I should have
tried harder. The first time I saw you
I knew I had liked you but why Would
such beauty ever like a character
like me. Maybe you’ll understand
maybe you won’t but at least hear me
out.

Now that’s in the past I still
can’t believe everything went
by so fast. That’s the thing about
love, if you don’t feel it once
you might never feel it again.
You’re my present, you’re my
future. You’re the only one I
would fight for, you’re the only
one I would sacrifice for. I may
not be able to bring you the moon
and the stars but I’ll tell you their
meaning and we’ll wish upon a
star. I may not be able to say The
right words but the things I would
do for you, you’ll know actions
Speak louder than words. Even if
you reject me I’ll still watch
over you and make sure you’re
happy in everything you do.
I’m not afraid of dying, I’m only afraid of
loosing you.

Title: A Puddle of Blood
Author: Joe
Subjects: A Breakup, Puddle of Blood

I have never been one to run away from anything,
untill she stabbed me in the back,
and now I sit aboard a train,
and I plan to never return.

She had left a bloody knife in my heart,
still dripping wherever I would go,
red bloodstains would forever follow me,
and I where I could once find mud,
I now find a puddle of blood.

I got off the train and starting running,
I would get as far away from he as I could,
and I would never look back,
I would never look back again.

Eventually I fell to my feet,
I could not carry on,
there wound left in me was too terrible,
and where I fell, there will always be A Puddle of Blood.

Vita

-Life-

The fat house recalled she liked to go out, she had a job, had to go to school to sharpen her senses.

Her room would answer she was exciting, collection of articles from downtown to ‘Keep Austin Weird’.

Never having matching sheets, the bed felt that it gave her room personality that nothing looked the same.

Replied her lamp, she liked to read; Edgar Allan Poe “The Raven,” her number-one.



Driveway acknowledges that she enjoyed working on her Jetta, putting in hoses and changing the oil to keep her purring.

The green VW Jetta would tell us it has always been well kept; feminine as she was she appreciated cars more than anyone.

Her dwelling would watch her snap the rain dripping down on the deck or two men playing chess while birds fly around.

She would capture it just at the right moment when everyone admires at the beauty that nature bestowed on us.



Ducklings would quack that she would always bring bits of bread or seeds to feed them though thick and thin.

Posing for her snapshots; she brought her camera everywhere since you never know when you may need it.

Harbors and docks would always see her sitting on the edge, watching the turtles swim by or sitting on their log.

Perched, she would wave her hand around in the water, watching the sun reflect of the gills of the fish that swam by.



Sitting in the enormous lusciously green backyard she had many friends whom sat around listening to music just talking.

The torches would often crackle with orange burning flames whispering; often getting together with close friends.

The delicate sand would blow gracefully around her beautiful sand patterns, communicating about her gentleness.

The boulders would illustrate her engaging environment in their shiny black reflection

title: gone
author: blueri
catagory: death

Away it slips,
like the wind through the trees,
my hope, replaced by sadness,
my last whisp of courage,
gone.

taken,
by the empire without glory,
the man, without a head,
with one swift grasp,
gone

poisoned,
by the "heros" he will never know
reduced to nothing,
and further below,
he walked straight into the white wall of death
alone, unaided,
gone.

Title: Scars of Sin
Author: Vexx
Subject: Death/Life

Together, face to face we stand
Me without kin and you without band
To the death we must fight
In minutes, one will see the light
Destroy your flesh and sever your soul
But what of the sin, I gladly pay the toll
Both children of God, why must we kill?
Of blood, sweat, and tear, all we shall spill
Brothers we were, enemies we are
Once I kill you, I'll live with the scar......
The scar of sin

Title: Black Goodbye
Category: Torture
Author: Haroken

Deeds are done,
Wars are won.
Behind the scenes,
The in between,
Time for black goodbyes.

Hold it within,
The lights are dim.
Feel it burn,
One must learn,
Time for black goodbyes.

You bring the pain,
My eyes, pouring rain.
Single spill,
As one will,
Time for black goodbyes.

The key is there,
Wallow in despair.
Taken from me,
You feel no need,
Time for black goodbyes.

Time for my black goodbye.

Title: Love With Two Tongues
Author:Invader (Johnny Garcia)
Subject:A Loved One (Its based on my friend (Ex-girlfriend) Steph)

I take time to look at the real world,
Its hell for saviors,
and heavon for fools.
A world were most everything outshines morality..
A Place to uncover the depression,
and to be proud to show the wounds.
You Spoke of love with two tongues...
Upon the burdend thrown,
Love, an excuse without content.
When we can no longer cry,
and the void is torn..
then its easy to forget,
Who threw our wings into the scorching sun.
Its hard to be happy with a smile that doesnt fit..
A Blackened Melancholic Jester Masque.
A sad medly it was,
That brought an unspeakable pain to my reality...
Where empty windows wave goodbye,
and a week seems sometimes shorter
than a half nights longing.
Who knows the certain reasons,
why it all begins and ends.
A glance to the eyes wont tell...
The hurt im waiting to feel..
Tears a hole with the knife
Im still longing to use...

It isn't very good but I wrote b/c I was depress
Locked up
By: Ryko
Genre: Loved one/Torture

Yo yo yo my sons birthday is today
I got him a new playstation 2
I got drink and stupid
Got my car
and went to the bar
When I left the cops were chasing me
Next thing I remeber is waking up in a cell
They said My court date ain't till tuesday
They said I was doing 190 on the freeway
With 4 bags of crack and 3 cases of Bud
They pulled me out of my car and started beatin' me up
They told my kid to look at me and laugh
I was bloody, and bruised
They don't even let me get a bath


I can't take this, I'm going crazy cause I'm all locked up
I don't know how to deal with this
I'm all locked up
They won't even let me see my kids
I'm all locked up



They got me in 7 day lock-down
I can't even move in this cell
They took my rights away
They took my money away
I have pay $5 a day
Just to stay in this hell

I can't take this
I'm going crazy just thinking how i ruined my kids birthday

When I went to court my bail was raised
My bails now at elven thou.


I can't take this, I'm going crazy cause I'm all locked up
I don't know how to deal wiith this
I'm all locked
They won't even let me see my kids
I'm all locked up
