The Five Line Competition
In five lines, describe all of the following:
One Emotion
Two Memories
Three Lessons Learned
Four Words Unspoken
And Five Dreams.
Include a title, and be sure to list anything you think is unclear that you've included. Explicit mention is not necessary so long as their presence is communally agreed upon after explanation.
The winner will have written a poem worthy of being a prize in and of itself.
Yes, this isn't really a competition.
Have fun.
Re: The Five Line Competition
You first.
Re: The Five Line Competition
In five line? Good gravy....
I can do it in 5 five words that will encompass it all....
I WILL LIVE MY LIFE.
Still, I'll give it a try.
Nice one....
Re: The Five Line Competition
Mmmm... gravy.
Re: The Five Line Competition
Tim, that's only one emotion, memory and dream....
Re: The Five Line Competition
Okay, okay, I'm on this. But I'm stuck..... describe four unspoken words in one line? Meh!
Re: The Five Line Competition
Okay, I am hoping the first four lines are self explanatory.
The fifth line: I am not going to get into specific dreams as there are too many to mention. with that, my dreams have often consisted of insanity, fear, obscure meanings, sensuality and heaven intertwined until I awake. Sometimes all are one or individual scenes. Often chaotic, when I could remember them. As of late I haven't remembered too many dreams at all. definitely unspoken and five dreams.
Title: Recollections
Enamored with the mere existence of you
I recall your voice like an angel and addictive charm
So hear me, I have discovered the insane have no rationale, no trust and no true friends
My singularity devotes itself to her for an eternity
Confusion obscures the meaning from fear when sensual sensations send heaven's gate
Re: The Five Line Competition
A fairy tale come true
I never knew what true love was untill you and I began.
I remember our first kiss, and when you said, "I think i'm falling in love with you."
Without love I have nothing, every door closed leaves another one opened, and prayers are never left unanswerd.
losing you scares me
But dreams are prayers left unspoken, and every dream I have comes true whenever I see you.
-just an explanation of the last line..my dreams all involve the love of my life..marrying him, starting a family with him, and just living the rest of our lives together. I don't have 5 specific dreams necassarily..-
Re: The Five Line Competition
"(Be)Longing"
Empty love fills nothing, because
Peace of Mind and Self-Esteem stem not
From silent sweet-nothings, but the scrapes and scars
Of "I don't love you" and that Happiness, or Pursuit thereof,
Never Gives Back, or Understands Itself.
One Emotion - bittersweet memory
Two Memories - Empty love, and the empty recovery
Three Lessons Learned - Empty love fills nothing, Peace of Mind stems not, Pursuing Happiness never gives back
Four Words Unspoken - this one should be obvious
Five Dreams - Love, Peace of Mind, Happiness, Giving Back, Understanding oneself.
I think I cheated. But I guess I'm sort of obligated to actually try something I came up with.
