Wow...This judging took WAY longer than I thought!! I was sighing to myself most of the time because there were soooooooooooooo many great entries and I honestly had the most difficult time deciding. Blew a fuse, I think...haha
I would like to take this time to kindly ask you all to please show respect to the winners. The decisions made were by me and not the artists, so I would hope noone would say something cruel to make them feel inadequate. You all did wonderfully and I'd choose you all if I could. *some artists may have been chosen twice for different mediums*
FYI--I had such trouble narrowing choices down that I will also be doing a VIEWER's CHOICE poll. It will only be up for a few days, so you'll have to hurry and make your choice. NO CHEATING please--be fair. The top 3 winners of viewer's choice will get a 3 month sub each.
NOW...ON TO THE WINNERS!!!!!

Ribbon SyncopationIt started with a whisper that echoed through my ears. My fingers began to twitch and burn, coursing through every pulse and vein. That sweet tune began to flow, filling every void and hole, and my feet began to gravitate closer to yours.by
Every sympathetic beat pounds into my head, moving me into a dance parallel to yours. My lungs stop breathing, and for a moment my world starts ending. And then you take the lead.
A superhero of sorts: taking a ribbon for a cape and flying on waves of radiation. You lead my pirouette, pointing sore bones through days and nights. It starts slowly, taking over time. Every tear wiped into a sea of mixe

.:Hope Makes Me Stay:.by
Such a fragile, feathered soul
That trembles with a touch.
And yet, though worn, has weathered all;
Has faced and endured much.
What keeps the soul so tethered now?
It has not blown away
Despite its tattered, feathered bow.
'Tis hope that makes it stay.

All i can do is keep breathingThe storm is closer but I don't mindby
People keep dieing around but I close my eyes and
All Ican do is keep breathing
And dreaming of you
The hair falls, the skin wrinkles
But I smile and keep breathing
I close my eyes and I see a child smile
And I keep breathing
I want to change the world
Instead I sleep
I want to see the world
Instead I'm in an hospital bed
But all that I know is that I'm breathing
All that I do is keep breathing
My pain is so deep
My body hurts so much
But all I can do is keep dreaming
Now
I'm drowning in shallow water
And I struggle to get out
Then I close my eyes and I see my self breathing
And i
