Thank you for the comment on both.

hello dearest Benny my heart sank at first I thought you were in the icu of the hospital… I’m glad you are alright and keeping your eyes open for treachery 💕

Good luck with that! LOL.
Cool little ditty, btw.

Thanks for the info, Fia. Appreciate you.

This sounds like the pain he felt was caused by her not caring. You cared more so you wrote about it. Nicly penned.

It’s good to read your material again. Some writers whack me upside the head with their weighty words. And I don’t mind a bit. It makes me think. It makes me curious. That’s the best drug to me: Curiosity. So thank you for feeding us this drug of yours.

Thank you Fia. In a nutshell, your interpretation is correct

Cheers Mark. I miss ‘chatting’ to the likes of Gary and your good self. For some reason (prob my IT incompetence) I can’t expand my messages on here. I’ll send my email.

Dear R,

The desolation of being the person who loves more with little, or worse, no return affection is the curse of the one damned for eternity. Having been there this write is very impactful. H🌷
