Hey peeps of STC. Welcome to the first contest voting thread! Thank you to those who entered. I've had gorgeous entries and enjoyed reading them all! I look forward to making next months already!
So, onto how this works. Everyone gets one vote. You can change your vote at any time, but the voting is open for 7 days only.
Whoever has the most votes at the end, wins. At the moment there is no prize except knowing that you get that month's title. In the event of a tie, I'll create another thread for the tied parties for a second round of voting!
For the writing, I had so many entries that I've split it into the poetry/songs and then stories for winners. One from each will win.
So, here are this months entries! Good luck everyone!

I love you
I think I should tell you that
Every day, my heart hurts, hurts
Hurts, Hurts, Hurts, Hurts
But why do I become
So small in front of you?
I'm like a powerless child, child
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Whenever I think of you, I feel good
I can't take my eyes off of you
( Oh ) Come on, just do it yo
Follow me like this
Come on, come on oh-oh-oh
Go to him first
And tell him you love him
You can do it now
You start first
Our county's president
Is now a female, so what's the big deal
Why can't girls do it first?
Will we be arrested if the girl goes first?
Go to him first
And you kiss him first
You can do it now
You can start first
You can do it now, oh-oh
Follow, follow, follow, follow
I want to tell you
I like you and confess to you
Because of you, my whole head is

Whenever I look at you, I keep laughing
I feel like I could melt

All of you

I want to tell you I like you

Come on just to it yo
You do it first, do it differently

Across the Sea of Stars
Across the sea of stars,
Our homeland spread from unknown worlds to cities even the gods admire;
Carving fissures through worlds and paving the heart with scars.
They sneered at us, but we realized just who we are,
And to spite them we climbed above them and even higher
And embarked across the sea of stars.
Our sights for conquest were far,
The galaxy in our own grip of iron,
Carving fissures through worlds and paving the heart with scars.
From the great beyond and the deep abyssal tar
Came creatures of smoke, brimstone and cosmic hellfire,
Sailing to our lands across the sea of stars.
From planet to planet we chased each other so far,
The endless pursuit of which neither of us would retire,
Carving fissures through worlds and paving the heart with scars.
We sat idly by and let them come, welcoming monsters so dark
To conquer our homeland, burn it to the ground in a nuclear pyre
But they did not stop, they continued their slow march across the sea of stars,
Carving fissures through worlds and paving the heart with scars.

I loved her...once
But how could I again?
As she runs with no conscience
What could she possibly gain?
I watch she she runs farther away
Neglecting Husband and child
Gone for another day
To run to him, because he’s wild
I sit with her children and grieve
As their mother runs away from me
Why does she leave?
I broke my body for this family
What right does she have to betray
All that we have worked for with glee
And still think it’s okay…
For her to run out that door.
Fine, go we no longer need you
I can do this all on my own
Without you doing what you need to do
Even your own Father doesn’t condoun
Our children have grown without your help
My children mean far more to me
A dog hurt need not yelp
It can survive and learn to be free
But how could I again?

I was that girl.
His very being.
His moon and stars.
His vibrant sunshine
on the very first day of spring.
I was that girl.
I was that girl.
His fate and destiny.
His most beloved.
The one who made the cold
hollow heart of his beat.
I was that girl.
I was that girl who watched him cry.
That girl who made him smile.
That girl whom he promised
To love and cherish
For the rest of his lifetime.
“I was that girl…”
I whispered.
The angel smiled.
I did as well, as I walked to the light.
While my heart burns with acid
He has moved on.
After all, I was
that girl no more.
His very being.
His moon and stars.
His vibrant sunshine
on the very first day of spring.
I was that girl.
I was that girl.
His fate and destiny.
His most beloved.
The one who made the cold

I loved her, for I knew her
And she knew me, and loved me.
A breath apart, a whole heart,
I loved her, and she me.
I caressed her, for I knew her
And she knew me, touched me.
Gentle fingers, a tentative linger,
I caressed her, and she me.
I whispered her, for I knew her
And she knew me, called me.
Cries in a dark night, a promise of a future light
I whispered her, and she me.
I loved her, for I knew her
And she knew me, and loved me.
A life intertwined, a love divine.
I loved her, and she loved me.
And she knew me, and loved me.
A breath apart, a whole heart,
I loved her, and she me.
I caressed her, for I knew her
And she knew me, touched me.
Gentle fingers, a tentative linger,

And she knew me, and loved me.
A life intertwined, a love divine.
I loved her, and she loved me.

Once I was happy
For when I cried
Someone was there
My eye was dried
Once I was content
For when I failed
Someone was there
And they prevailed
Once I was well
For when I was not
Someone was there
For them I fought
Once I was alive
For in my life
Someone was there
Through the strife
Now I am lost
For I now cry
No one is here
No one will try
Now I am angry
For I now lost
No one is here
I pay the cost
Now I am ill
For I now die
No one is here
So I lie
Now I am dead
For in my peril
She was taken
Without farewell
She was someone
Now she is no one
She was my world
For I loved her
For when I cried
Someone was there
My eye was dried
Once I was content
For when I failed
Someone was there
And they prevailed
Once I was well
For when I was not
Someone was there
For them I fought
Once I was alive
For in my life
Someone was there
Through the strife
Now I am lost
For I now cry
No one is here
No one will try
Now I am angry
For I now lost
No one is here
I pay the cost
Now I am ill
For I now die
No one is here
So I lie
Now I am dead
For in my peril
She was taken
Without farewell
She was someone
Now she is no one
She was my world
For I loved her

*~Lost Cause*~
Why must you tease me so
Every time I see your smile
It sends me into absolute desire
I want what I can't have
Nothing I do makes you come to me
I try to talk whenever I see you
But you never give me the time of day
What is it about the other girls
That makes you smile and glow
Why can't I send out the same vibes
What will it take to get your attention
I've wished upon stars and asked the genie
Love once again has escaped my grasp
I have given it my best and my all
Shyness overrules my desires and call
Having what I want to take
I watch the smiles each day
I've watched myself to sorrow and loss
Nothing I can do will stop my want
Destruction of myself for the one I love
Is it worth the loss of all
I loved you…
*~Untitled*~
Walking into the theatre I stopped to look.
Something caught my eye, something sweet
It wasn't art, songs or a book
It made the room soar with heat
Was it you, the way you smiled?
Or maybe it was the way you brightened up my day
I find myself looking each minute for just a glance at your happy look.
I've found myself smitten in love
But nothing will help me not on earth or above
I've lost myself to my petty ways
Shyness and insecurity takes a hold of me
Is it because I've had difficulties in the past?
Or maybe because I've found myself stuttering with words
Whatever the cause may be, I've become smitten with thee
Just to be near you, to glance at you, to touch you
Is that enough to make me happy, is it enough
I can't deal with these feelings any longer, but to tell you would be far too tough.
I want to spill all my feelings for you
But circumstances forbid me to do so
I can't have what I hold dearest to me
You might as well be nothing to me
I've lost myself into deep despair
Never before have I felt so near
Near, far either and both
I can't do what I want most
With you is where I'd love to rest
But that means a fight with the best
I'm nothing to you
Nothing more than another person
I have nothing to give that will be new
So now I go far, far away
No longer will I beg, not one more day
Why must things be as they are
I want to be in your arms
Far away from anything that harms
Love is so overrated for me
Nothing will ever change, it's meant to be
I will grow old and lonely, living a life full of wants and wishes
NO MORE WILL I LIVE IN THE PAST!!
With these last words I give a request
Follow your hearts and don't stop
Letting your self conscious rule over you
Will only make you sad and blue
Stupidity showed in my mistakes
Don't follow in the same steps
Dropping down to my knees with one last breath do I plead.
I'm sorry all, I can no longer do this
I have gone to the edge and back
I no longer care to continue in life
I look over to the only sharp things
Suicide has never been my choice
But it is now my escape from my need
Despite it all… I loved you
Why must you tease me so
Every time I see your smile
It sends me into absolute desire
I want what I can't have
Nothing I do makes you come to me
I try to talk whenever I see you
But you never give me the time of day
What is it about the other girls
That makes you smile and glow
Why can't I send out the same vibes
What will it take to get your attention
