One Ok Rock's music didn't just play in my ears - it kept me alive. When I wanted to give up on myself, trapped in a hole I couldn't climb out of, their songs became the heartbeat whispering: "Keep going." 

While writing this poem, "Save Yourself" kept playing in my mind. I don't know if it was the rhythm, the lyrics, or both, but the hypnotizing melody and vibrating soundtrack shook something loose in me. This poem isn't about the song. It's what grew from its echo - the ocean left behind when the music fades.

This is also for everyone who's ever felt like water - poured into shapes that weren't theirs. For those who stood still, forgetting how to flow. It's about remembering you were never meant to be contained. You were meant to be the ocean.

Do you dare let your ashes turn into your ink? Because I do. And if you do so, then consider participating. ______________________________________________ If you aren't familiar with system of my Awards, They're different from most contests in the following ways: 1) There's no need to participate in just a particular category, you just have register into the awards and your work will be judged. Their will be multiple categories and Awards, and your work will be given an award if it is the best fitting work for that particular Award among all the entries. 2) Poetry only-These are a Poetry exclusive Awards and only Poetry is allowed to be submitted. 3) A sole judge-The entries are going to be judged by me and the final decisions are mine. 4) Not particularly fancy or so-These Awards are minimal and is something I do because I feel there aren't enough contests highlighting just poetry instead they have poetry as an individual category. ______________________________________________ Submissions open till 1st October 2025 If you feel confused about anything please read the Awards once, if it doesn't help, feel free to reach out to me, I'd be more than happy to help. *YOUR PARTICIPATION MATTERS
