    Hi everyone!

    Here's my first contest. I'll accept 10 poems.

    Rules:

    1. The theme of the poem must be related to "fashion", anything about it. It can belong to any category (love, sadness, nature, life, friendship, family, etc.). Use your imagination!

    2. I will choose the top 5 poems according to it's originality. It also has to be well written.

    3. Just one poem per person.

    4. As I already said, everyone's a winner, so everyone gets his/her poem r/r/c.

    5. The top 5 poems, will receive kisses and hugs, my friendship, my love, my loyalty, and will be in my favorites for a month. This means I'll always r/r/c their new poems. And maybe they'll stay there forever.

    Good luck everyone, use your imagination, and have fun.

    XoXo

    ok, so i know this is a dumb question, but fashion meaning clothes right? or like fashion of doing something, or what?

  • Lost & Delirious

    It can be about clothes, but you can use the theme any way you want. Just be original.

    Ok Tell me if this is what you wanted

    ~The fashion industry~

    All the Goths have their style
    All the preps have their jackets.
    All the nerds have their own thing
    By that I mean suspenders and pocket protectors.
    So what do I have?
    Just ripped up jeans,
    Clothes falling apart,
    I am placed in a certain spot
    On this high school scale of what is cool
    And what is not.

    Oh how I wish to be one of
    The cool kids
    Oh how I wish to be placed
    Higher on the scale.
    Separated from my lack of clothes
    How I hate the fashion
    That has grown.

    I’m not cool
    Because of my clothes
    The girls say I am pretty
    But that is not enough,
    I sit at the lunch table
    All by myself
    I watch the Goths kids talk
    As they are dressed in black
    From head to toe.

    The popular kids
    Have expensive jeans
    Their purses are outrages
    I bet the cost more than just plain me.

    I have just one thing to say
    And mean it with all my heart,
    Damn you kids and damn
    The fashion industry.

  • Lost & Delirious

    Yeah, that's what I wanted.

    You rock!

    BTW, amazing poem. I'll r/r/c.

    Fate
    by ŘÅÇĦ♥

    I don't know how to explain
    this feeling I have for you
    Some would call it love
    but I call it fate.
    It started so well
    and ended in tragedy
    It's just another story of a girl
    who fell a little to hard
    for the wrong guy.
    And got caught up
    for something she thought was real
    just like everyone else he let her down
    and their love slowly faded away.
    until he didn't know her anymore.

    Another Game [Another Dead]

    His journals scrawled on the devil's heart,
    But he's the picture of perfection.
    A girl's best 'friend'
    But they see the outside reflection.

    He puts a sl*t in his bedroom
    Another w*ore on the kitchen tiles,
    Slips off his wedding ring
    For another round of smiles.

    He's the bitter aftertaste,
    The poison through your veins.
    He's the one who'll take the innocent
    To leave them in HIV chains.

    This blonde hair blued eyed masterpiece
    Whose lust is not rationale,
    Buries women in their graves.
    He's just deadly fashionable.

    Diamonds and Pearls!

    She cuts her writs with Diamonds,
    Hangs herself with Pearls,
    She can't stand to see them,
    Softly crying behind the curls.

    Waking up early to paint on
    A smile, full of tears and lies, but
    She can't hold on any longer,
    To this facade she hides behind.

    She cuts herself with Diamonds,
    And hangs herself with pearls.
    A slave to fashion, in this
    Oh so very wretched world!

    The saying oes diamonds are
    A girls best friend, this is true
    In this sad tale, but they served
    Just one more purpose!

    Cutting herself with Diamonds,
    Hanging herself with pearls,
    Dressing in the new trends,
    Falling apart as she walks!

    Ribbons and laces and pink satin too
    Shoes in jewels of all color hues
    Dances in dim light with a boy or two
    In truth, I am nothing at all like you

    Dreamy eyes and seductive lips
    Late night parties of swinging hips
    No, I'm not that easily tempted to show
    My affection to someone I don't know

    I'm not that kind of girl at all
    My goals, unlike yours, are set far
    I work to achieve my dreams at all cost
    I am not ready for my heart to be lost

    You may be flirty in your little pink dress
    But I know inside your life will be a mess
    You don't know why I do what I do
    You don't know why I'm cold to someone new

    I may be girl, liking "stuff" once in a while
    But I don't need a man, or shoes to make me smile
    I'm not a wannabe, neither looking for boys
    That just isn't my way of finding my joys

    I'm not that kind of girl at all
    It is to the future that I call
    You may whisper, they may lure
    But in the end, I'm not that girl

    *Untitled*
    Any Ideas?

    It's sad really, how
    kids are running around like robots
    buying all this and that
    spending over 100 bucks
    for the 'stylish new hat'

    It's sad really, how
    being a clone seems to be the trend
    that's lasted for all of time
    follow the leader, forget your true self,
    dont you dare step out of line

    It's sad really, how
    girls' outfits seem to be shrinking,
    for all the guys to drool
    and all those popular, rich b**ches
    seem to be ruling the schools

    It's sad really, how
    All because of their daddy's money ,
    these girls get to be the 'best'?
    to pick who's worth the time of day
    and to torment the rest.

    It's sad really, how
    no one can show their true colors,
    instead they 'have' to 'have' that sweater,
    from abercrombie and finch
    and they dont even know any better.

    It's sad really, how
    i seem to be the only real person,
    the only one who seems to realize
    how every trendy b!tch is f**cking fake,
    and how MTV's telling everyone stupid lies .

    Model Behavior

    You got it made

    A year ago I wished you dead
    Now we're like best friends
    The gothic one woke up to find herself
    in a fairytale
    She follows the behavior
    of the models covering her walls
    She says she follows my example
    Innocent by association
    She's like my little sister
    Leave her with those magazines
    that sell such pretty lies
    Would we still be friends if you weren't so nice?
    Originality is so cliche
    You got it made

    BTW, the poem doesn't have to be newly written.

    It’s not a crime

    It’s just a simple thing
    Not a trend, not a life, not big deal
    But for others has a lot of mean
    Pretty shoes with high pink heels

    Was it written in a book?
    It’s weird but I have to admit
    Only matters the way you look
    Expensive cloth and the perfect fit

    Pink, white, blue, green
    What color should I wear today?
    I just want to feel like a queen
    That’s what the skinny girl said

    Magazines and TV shows
    Thin models with designer clothes
    Fashion rules in the world we know
    Bright pieces that seem to glow

    It’s just a matter of time
    But there’s a thing I can’t deny
    Loving fashion is not a crime
    But is getting so fuckin high

    - Hope u like it
