    This was a really creative piece and I especially loved the structure of the fire surrounds part; I also loved the image of the tears extinguishing it. You really seemed to tie the piece together nicely for example I really liked how you followed the idea of the ocean of tears with the idea of drowning. It was clear you put a lot of thought and skill in to this so congratulations on a great write and best of luck in the contest x

    That was very confusing. It was hard to follow. Don't put any of that in my contest, I will strait out DQ it

    Well, this was pretty good for a try. I liked it =) Though, I did feel it could be longer, it was still a good shot at it. You used a lot of creativity when putting it together, which I highly admired.
