6/6 FOB - Ends 1st Jan '08

Ok. The last one people!

This is the sixth (finally!) of six contests. All using titles taken from the three Fall Out Boy albums.
I will be judging each contest separately, so there will be winners and HM's who will receive comments and then there will be an overall top three when all the contests are done who will win the biggest prizes.

Now you don't have to enter all six contests to win the top prize, (although you will have a bigger chance) You just have to blow me away with your talent. =)

----------------------------------------------------------

Each contest will have twenty titles. The first two will be from the first album, the second two from the second album and the last two from the third album. So i will be using a lot of titles to choose from =)

----------------------------------------------------------

Not a lot of rules..

1) Try not to swear, it's allowed but no over the top cursing.
2) Try to keep profanity to a minimum. I don't mind it but don't write a porno, lol
3) If you write a specific format, explain it when you're finished
4) Can be old or new, i don't mind but impress me =)
5) Max of three poems per person and a max of three poets per titles (towards the end, this may be increased so keep an eye out if a title you like is full)
6) Have fun.

The Truth Hurts Worse than Anything He Could do to You

I watch you sitting
Out on your porch.
You wrap your arms around your legs
And rock yourself back and forth.

Burying your face
Deep into your arms
You feel as though
This is the only place you'll find calm.

I walk towards the porch
And you look up at me.
The tears falling from your eyes
Blurs everything you see.

I sit down beside you
And put an arm around your waist.
You turn to look at me,
And I watch the tears roll down your face.

"He left me," you say
Through your tears.
"I thought he loved me"
You scream, blocking your ears.

Tears well up in my eyes
As I listen to you cry.
I wish I could tell you
That it's only this one guy.

But I know better
Than to lie about this.
I know you'll always remember
The feeling of his kiss.

You'll always look back
And wonder why.
Then you'll realise
That "Love" is just a lie.

Every man will play
Games with your heart;
Don't fall for it;
Don't let it tear you apart.

No matter what I try to say
To help you through,
The truth hurts worse than anything
He can ever do to you.

Thanks :)

Throwing stones at glass moon

Scrupling between opinions and adjectives,
breaking and waiting, endlessly waiting...
I'm someone I don't know today
and I'll dissect emotions and beliefs once again.

Honesty... oh, false honesty that controlled me...
I'm leaving it behind with the rest of mimicry.
I will scream so you can find me in the woods of silence
(on the other hand, don't bother... I love to be lost)

This is distant mediocrity of my scattered desires
that echo, waiting in the shadows of decaying moral.
Play with words, please, play with my thoughts
as I throw stones at the moons of yesterdays.

I wrote a goodbye note in lipstick your arm

This is representing pleasure, I guess
so how come it is tediously tart?
Am I condemned to walk along your roads
or just to carry my scars of sorrow?

Everything I'm not is listed in your eyes-
perfection enwrapped around awry vision...
Time flows between my cold fingers
leaving me with scarlet petals of haunting promises.

So close to your skin, warmness suffocates me
while I press shivering lips upon pulsing veins
eager to get sip of poisoned blackness
that spreads from your dying heart.

Heavenly mask hid the narcotic deserts
(and I'm writing the hells away)
rhythm of your breathing wave sinful symphonies
(watching in distress, I destroy my fidelity)

Pretending not to care you defend from upcoming befall,
ignoring this fiasco dressed like deathly, walking chimera.
Lost between mindless sighs and captivating madness
I wrote bloody goodbye note to visit you in your sleep.

I Know I'm Supposed To Love You [Glosa Verse]
((Tearing Us Apart - Plain White T's))
At this time in my life, I have made up my mind.
Everyone thinks that I'm crazy.
But I cannot deny all these feelings inside.
All I can say is I'm sorry.
```````````````````````````````````

I just hung up the phone with you again,
I'm wondering if this is really the end.
It's been three years, but it feels like more -
And I'm not sure if I can keep doing this anymore.
I Know I'm Supposed To Love You, but I'm Tearing Us Apart.
I thought that there was more out ther to find -
But maybe, just maybe, I was really wrong;
And now I;m just dragging you along.
It's time I leave a part of me behind.
"...At this time in my life, I have made up my mind."

I know you could do so much better than me -
But it seems you're stuck inside some fantasy.
I'm all wrong; I'm no good for you;
There's gotta be something else for me to do.
I Know I'm Supposed To Love You, but I'm Tearing Us Apart.
You seem to think I'm your Only, and maybe
That there's no one else out there for you.
But believe me, how much more do I have to do?
I haven't been honest with you lately.
"...Everyone thinks that I'm crazy."

You may not understand just how I feel,
I know that you thought what we had was real -
But I don't know if I can keep up with this charade;
And it's not fair for you to play this losting game.
I Know I'm Supposed To Love You, but I'm Tearing Us Apart.
He was there to wipe away the tears that I had cried,
He held me when I had fallen apart.
When I thought I had nothing, he had my heart.
I know that all these years I have lied...
"...But I cannot deny all these feelings inside."

I wish I could explain the way I feel when he looks at me -
He makes me feel like there's nowhere else I'd want to be.
I've tried to be fair but keeping you both won't work;
I'm betting on the fact that you think I'm a jerk.
I Know I'm Supposed To Love You, but I'm Tearing Us Apart.
I want you to leave and never worry -
You'll find someone who will keep you around;
I'm sorry he's the one that my heart had found.
There's nothing I could say to show you I'm sorry.
"...All I can say is I'm sorry."

We walk the plank on a sinking ship

Oblivion crawls down the body,
inhaling warmness as it whispers
words of darkness and bleached skies
which we hung over our shattered thoughts.

Say goodbye...
how painful that sounds,
when erotic murmurs consume your senses
and fragrance of this illusion becomes
vivid and real...

Mannequins of obscurity, you walk near me
just to battle against minor numbers and clocks,
we wave our defeats within hearts of sorrow,
drinking every drip of pain from broken china...

Oh, my sweet longings for that porcelain face
(drowned within dreadful moments- words drain)
reached stars with frail hands, through the thunders
and all volcanic beauties of nightly visions...

(And magic, it begins tomorrow
when my world crashes down,
when I leave it beneath my feet
and look the guilt straight in the eye.)

How profound I was to draw this picture alone,
when starless shepherds drag in dirt virulent epochs...
What could I say, anyway
in front of the claws of my clay dragon?

We walk down the threads of silence, confessing emptiness,
closing windows that show extravagance and apathy.
(Fountains, charismatic faces, oaths... I can't turn the head away)
Oh, unannounced misery, ravage my heart once again...
