    This poem was quite powerful. It held strong deep emotions which were portrayed nicely in certain depth. I found the structure to be just a little off causing this poem to lose its flow in some places but other then that this was a pretty good poem~mel

    Regardless of the seeming fact that there's too much telling rather than showing, I'd still give you some props for the intangible emotions that you've applied in this work. This endears me in a way by which reading it stings the upper portion of my head literally and allegorically. I quite liked it, nonetheless.

    Without even doing anything.
    maybe try
    Without doing anything.
    or
    Without doing a single thing.

    It would help out the poem. This poem was ok. The flow was a little off but the word choice was great.

    The poem seemed squashed together. Maybe if you brock the stanza down into two or three it would help with that and it would help fix the flow some. I gave this poem a 4/5.

    The flow was great, the word choice was excellent, and the emtion was strong, It would probaly be easier to read if you broke it up into stanzas, but well written, perfectly penned peice. 5/5 keep up the good work

    This was a good poem, the only thing I would have to point out is the limited view of the consiquences in the piece I think if you touched on those or what your actions would do for you in the future this would be more thought provoking. Plot121

    Great piece indeed. Well worded with a good word choice and flowing well. I liked the grief depicted in this piece. Lovely! One thing I would suggest you is structure the poem :)

    5/5 all the way

    Hi again....VERY powerful words for your age if you don't mind me saying and i noticed that you mentioned a GUN...and i was shocked.
    The amount of people that can get hold ov guns in America is unbelieveable and it's really hard over here..id say it's a good thing because the amount ov times iv tried to kill myself, i would have succeded with a gun and at the minute i'm feeling a bit better than i was.
    Anywayz same again take care chik

    This is always a tough subject for people to read/write about. I think you did a stand up job writing about such a touchy subject.
    The content and word choice defy your years.

    I would only recommend that this be broken into stanza's. I always see a block of text rather daunting to read, i think breaking it up into stanza's would make it a little easier on the eye.

    Hard topic,
    Nice flow.
    Good work.
    [5/5]
