Okay, that last review disturbed me, if you REALLY read that poem, you would of seen that NObody was PUSHING religion on her, they are trying to help her in a way that they believe best, not necessarily the right way to all people, but its their way of assisting her.
I am anagnostic, and right now I am a bisexual (not sure, but I have been with a girl for over 6 months and I love her) I repect your voice of religion, and I feel that you are a wonderful person for not "condeming" non-christian people, I am open to all ideas, even witchcraft its that someone's thing, but I do feel that good overrides all, and this poem was a powerful statement of trying to turn somenone away from the bad, It didn't really have a form of a poem, but it still flowed differently from just plain dialouge. I loved it, and its a scary, but terribly realistic story, I hope that you can help her out, Not necessarily make her find God, but at least save her before she does something wrong. I do agre though that you CAN find hapiness without god, I have, although sometimes I do wish that I had a God in my life, I really do, but if there is one, He has taken so much from me thats its complicated to believe, but I hope that people like you and your poetry wll help me find Something.
In the 10th section, the phrase "Yet, alex", sould probably be BUT, Alex, it just fits better, its seems to be a better choice of words.
I will read more, and I love your Bio, thanks for adding me to you Fav Authors (I wrote Portrait of a Princess) and if you can, email me!

This...poem (even if the format had worked, it wouldn't be very poetic) bothers me. Christianity and good are not always synonymous. I'm an Atheist. I'm also a smoker, I sometimes skip classes, I sometimes have sex, I sometimes drink, and I did, at one point, pursue an interest in witchcraft and what-not.
But I'm a good person. I am most certainly not evil. Maybe not everything I do is considered good, but I care about people, I want to make a difference, you know, all that cheesy stuff. I just don't need a god to make me feel this way.
And I know plenty of Christians who smoke, skip classes, even do drugs and have sex.
This poem is so self-righteously. Christianity does not automatically make you a better person.
God is not what this girl needs. This girl needs supportive friends who are going to try and help her, rather than judge her and push religion on her. People who do that are not friends.
