I didn't know that this would happen~
Not that I wasn't expecting it~
Everybody is surprised at some time in their life~
Very frequently, the surprise isn't surprising~
Even if you haven't been expecting it~
Real life isn't what you think~
I didn't know that this would happen~

hmmm...
I refuse to applaud. -
This was... impressive. For someone who is 11 years old. It reminds me of when I was that age, only about 2 years ago, mind you. Keep up the great work, I hope to see more from you.

If you are seriously 11 years old this is amazing, in fact, it is top notch regardless of your age. I like how you included the acrostic, the line lengths are really effective as are the breaks. The word very seemed a little forced but nothing worthy of scorn. This shows wisdom and reflection. An admirable piece.
