Love is:
Complicated,
Fun,
Emotional,
Intimidating,
Upsetting,
Unnerving,
Beautiful,
Grieve.......
_____________________________________
OKay, we all have our own versions of the love word. Most of us can't even say it yet without making a face
But in this contest, I want you to describe it. Everyone has their own opinions, and they are all welcome. There's only one rule though:
You can't use any of the above words.
And no, in this contest the thesaurus is not your friend. If you gave me:
Love is scary instead of intimidating, I will DQ you.
Brownie Points:
If you use idioms, similes, metaphors, etc.
Ex: Love Is: Like your Floating on clouds
Just something simple-
Good Luck!

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on January 29
- Rewards: Gold: 150, Silver: 75, Bronze: 30, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: This is the hardest contest I have EVER judged.Probably because I loved so many people's opinions I just felt like crying at some points.
I am SO SORRY FOR THE DELAY! I moved, took a placement test after homeschooling, caught up with grades, and soccer tryouts. Basically I am tired, worn-out , and feel like crying. Although you probably don't want to know about that. So I'll just get to the point.
Even if you didn't get that shiny trophy, everyone deserveded one. I was looking for one of the most original writing peices that I could relate to or added some of the author's experience. The reason I hosted this contest was basically because I didn't know what it felt like to be in love. Actually, I still don't know. I guess it will just be one of those things that I'll have to experience on my own. Although I still found reading all of your entries entertaining and truthful. One of the best contests ever.
Thanks for entering, and once again I'm so sorry for making you wait too long. I hope you don't feel as if I didn't appreciate something you took time and effort to write for.
Okay, I'll shut-up now.
Thanx 4 entering,
~Lone

Its hard to describe love, because right now i could never see myself 'Falling' IN Love.

What is love anyway? There are many movies, books, and songs based solely on that four letter word. It is definitely a powerful, meaningful word…so precious, yet so often misused in society.

I can't describe love. No one truly can, without making it too personal - as it only applies to them. Each love if different, special and unique. Love is something you hold deer to your heart, mind and soul. There are so many• Commented on by judge.

Love is when I'm with him. Love is here all year long, it doesn't come and go like seasons. Love is more unreachable than the sky. Love is like a shadow, when you run away from it, it follows you.

I believe there are two forms of love. There is 'love'... and then there is 'being in love.' When you 'love' someone you know it in your heart, but when you are 'in love' with someone everyone else knows it.

did I forget something?
-
-
no...i just can't do these contests very well..

don't worry, I don't really care if it's something crappy that just popped in your head, or something well-planned out. You can probably say love is like a thousand needles poked into your skin, and I'd be just fine with that
