This isn't my personal best, but I've got nothing else to work with. My brain has decided to block all the good creativity. Blah...
I know the chasm created between us could never be filled with feelings for one another again, so something else has taken its place. I filled the void with water and hauled in sand for a beach. I planted waving palm trees to remind you that you left me with an uncaring wave and a turned back. Nowadays I relax in a lounging beach chair and slowly sip on a fruity cocktail. From time to time I wonder how you are, but only long enough to lift the binoculars to my eyes and watch you drown in your own sorrow.
your imagery of a broken relationship and the healing of one is striking Brit.
ReplyDeleteThis is an outstanding piece. I could imagine everything as I read this and could apply the feelings you created in this piece to events in my life. I cannot wait to see your future work :)
ReplyDeleteEverything can't be personal best, but this is good. Good still ranks in my world.
ReplyDeleteYou may not consider it your best, but it's still very honest. Thank you for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteThat last line is priceless...PRICELESS. It flowed so perfectly, so easily.
