I’m falling down, down, down,
Into the deep abyss of misery,
That engulfs our world.
Flailing and thrashing for something,
Anything to grab and save me,
From my awaiting fate.
But nothing is there to rescue me,
No one is there to help,
Me along the way.
I fell down the whole without warning,
I had wanted to explore it, not
Lose myself in it.
All little girls creep closer and closer,
Tiptoeing near the unknown,
Near our future.
Then out of nowhere we fall,
Like Alice in Wonderland,
Down the hole.
Suddenly we are getting older,
Becoming more mature,
And we can’t stop.
No matter how much I pray, how hard I try,
It won’t stop, won’t freeze, I am,
Slowly dying.

Honestly, I admire your poetry. Why els do you think I'd have given it so much thought? But... much as it hurts my overflown ego to admitt it. I find it an exausting efort to argue with you. I realise people have there diferences. Or, I should say, I'm just starting to realy figuer that out. If you chose to see things your way. Well, then if you'll forgive me for saying so. I'm happy to admitt it's none of my busness.And wile I don't resent the thought of your coming glow of rejoicing that you won out. I can't say I shall be happy to drop the corisponence. I've rather injoyed arguing with somone who can give inteligent diagrement. Trust me, though I have an odd way of expresing myself. Anyone who is much acquanted with me, could have told you frome the start. The fact that i comenteed at all means your poem had no small efect on me.

Oh, don't worry, it wasn't an insult in any way. It was a simple realization of your lack of capabilities and reasons to continue commenting on my work. And no thank you, I could go a lifetime without ever desiring to read your poem, but thanks for the offer.

If she wasn't trying to insult me, then pray tell, why did she repete  what has already been said. When it could not be cald positiv. And holds know other purpose. But I hate to disapoint you when I say, my pothetic pslelling, Has never hinderd my poetic skill. If indeed, I realy have any. You can continue to critisise my spelling and coments. But you haven't critisised my poem. The only one that has been posted. I would be delighted if you gave it a bad rating. So long as you beleve it an honest one.

Oh, shes very good at insulting, but how do you even know that shes trying to insult you. And wow, no one else has ever told you that you were negitive?? I surely do not believe that. On almost everyone of her stories you have something negitive to say about them. Why can't you just keep all your comments about her stories and poems to yourself?, and like i said you missed the part where i said we're best friends, because you we're too busy critizing her work!, and sweetie, your not gonna get anywhere in life if you don't know how to spell. READ A DICTONARY!

I don't have the slightest idea what your talking about. She did not say you were best frinds. Did you, or did you not ,write the poem at the age of thirteen?

I was begining to suspect you to might know each other. But, it's agains the rules to give presonal imformation. Like, ages. But...I do think it's good, [for a 13 year old]
