Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
It was not a dream.

Wide Awake

by Harrisa

Awaken from a blissful sleep
I got a call that made me weep
Mother said there was a death
I dropped the phone, couldn't catch my breath
My heart cramped and squeezed real tight
I tried to think with all my might
Was this a bad dream, gone by tomorrow
Or was this my first taste of sorrow



Sad Poems writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
Sadness has overcome us all at one time or another. Either caused by a relative or close friend's death or from the girl or guy that broke our heart or just life in general. We all handle situations differently, some good, some bad. This contest gives us the ability to explore this. Your poem can also play into other emotions that are common to writing like this such as anger or depression.
