Lots of tears over a lost poem...

    I just wrote one of the best poems I ever wrote entitled Believe in Tragedy. But I forgot to write it down, and while I was submitting it to this site, my computer decided it was going to log me off of p+q... Now I'm really upset because I can't remember the words or even really what it was about. It completely left my head.
    I just wanted to let that out, and stuff...

    Has this ever happened to any of you?

    Omg, the other day I was writing a poem on my computer during a thunderstorm. Then my power went out. I was so upset for awhile. I tried rewriting it the best that I could. But I felt it just wasn't the same or as good as the first one.

    Yeah I tried to remember and rewrite it but the rewrite really sucked compared to the first one.

    ^ ur lucky!

    I usually write it down and then type it up on P+Q, but this one time I didn't. And it was the one time I should have... Oh well, I'm over it.

    That's why I type it down in word or notepad; and then just copy and paste the whole thing.

    The site kicks you off sometimes and it's really annoying.so be careful. >_>

    Sometimes if you click "back" right away it will still be there. That's what happened for me. Then you can just copy it and sign in again.

    On my step dads computer i had well over 100 poems saved on there that i didn't have anywhere else plus a story i was writing because i was bored (the story was about 150 pages long). my mom and step dad got divorced so he wanted his compy and so my mom had to get the stuff off of there....i forgot that she had no idea what she was doing when it comes to the compy. i lost all of those plus that long ass story i was writing...i'm still heart broken :(
