FOUR

Defy hate      
With love        
Deny evil        
Tout good        
With word        
Also deed        
Give more        
Take less        
Keep true        
Don't fake        
Stay gold      
Live life        
With zest        
God's hope      
Your soul        
Will live        
Fore       
Ever-More  
Amen

Love is a four letter word

Mind blur
Word slur
Head fuzz
Soul buzz

Gaze call
Body will fall
Eyes tell lies
True love dies

Word spar
Left scar
Won't heal
Can't feel

Weak from pain
Melt like rain
Hurt cuts
Door slam shut

Won't stop burn
Life turn
ache from sins
Soon fate wins

Thank you, snuggle; you have submitted the first qualifying entry to this competition.  Your four-letter-word poetic advice is sound doctrine!

NB FOUR is a four-letter word but 4 is not;  why not make it literal, rather than numerical?

Sincerely

Welcome to the world of competitions, Joy!

The answer is in your question:  yes, you must first upload the poem to your own list and then move it to the competition.

Can't wait to crack up over your cracker!
