This was truly beautiful. I can relate to this story in so many ways and I thank you for this deep and powerful story so far. It intrigues you and makes you sad all at the same time. Keep going! I want more!

I love the simplicity of the layout. Its got that sophisticated feeling to it like only a good layout can have.

Short, but beautiful. I love how the narrator remembers the fun times, but then comes back to how her friend isn't there anymore. The way she talks to her dead friend is depressing and beautiful and very easy for me to understand and empathize with. Your use of description was poetic and beautiful.

Overall, this story was very stunning.

Wow...I am at a complete loss for words. I man, everything's perfect!

The layout:
Simple and elegant, just like the words. The layout plays out well with the story, so a thumbs up for that :)

The Story:
Simply stunning. Usually, I would avoid a story written in this point of view since it is rarely written correctly, but you did what few are able to, and made it work. I know I keep saying this but I can't get over how simple this was! It was enough to not weigh me down with unnecessary information, but enough to give me a visual. Especially with the picture. I could just see the three friends, tangle together with goofy looks on their face, just enjoying each other.

I hope you continue writing :)

Dear daisyfairy,

The King is in tears from your story. His voice cracked as he ordered us toward your story.

From the start with the poem to the end with the letters the flow of your story kept us like a tide.

Now we are on the shore and wish that the tide kept going.

Your story is beautiful, keep writing in different styles it's amazing. Also, you never know how much your writing could get dulled with familiar styles.

This friendship is lovely.

Truly,

I have to say this is simply beautiful and touched my heart. Especially that my grandfather is currently dying of cancer, and he's always been someone that was very dear to me. You wrote this magnificently and you really knew how to bring out the emotion. Beautiful work, I love it. <3 Keep it up!

I love those lyrics and that song... If I open a story with Mumford and Son lyrics, I instantly assume its going to be great.

I wasn't wrong.

This was wonderful. This doesn't seem like a new writing style for you, though you said it was. It seems like you're comfortable with this style, which shows you're a good writer. Any writer that can step out of their comfort zone and produce a piece of work that doesn't sound like you wrote it in fifth grade, is a good sign.

I was a tad confused about who died of cancer... Maria or the other friend?? Maybe it was just a reading error on my part. Ive concluded that it was the other friend, but I might be wrong.

The part at the end about her coming to the cliff and writing what needed to be said and hoping it would find her, was beautiful.

I loved the simplistic layout, and the picture you chose.

This was lovely :)
