First place overall goes to Zilch and his poem, "Dreaming Awake":
Ice, the cold your eyes became
I wish my heart was just the same
But you're gone now, and all that's left
Is all these memories I have kept
Something's wrong within these eyes
Because I hold you close inside
But you're gone now, and now I reap
All this pain I have to keep
I find you in my deepest dreams
Your face I touch, it's all I see
But you're gone now, and now I know
This pain inside will only grow
The dream now fades, and I awake
And all I feel I wish to shake
But you're gone now, or so it seems
Except at night, of you I dream
Second place goes to Eirewolf, and her poem "A Love Song", and third overall goes to SirenofLyrics. Excellent job to all of our poet laureates!
