    • Shock and unreliability of the news is highly felt on this

    • I can’t even comprehend a loss this magnitude. All I can offer is the humble hope that you will find at least a modicum of peace in the writing.

      • Thank you. I hope writing and music will help, eventually. We also managed to fulfil her wishes and donate her organs, which is a real positive. Nobody should have to go through this, though. She was only 17, was much loved, and it’s just horrific.

    • Powerfully penned, Ellie. I can’t even imagine my friend, so sorry for your loss. Writing is therapy, may it bring you some sort of relief. Appreciate you.

    he knows the sound of my breath
    as it catches
    hovering over his words
    like a hummingbird
    imbibing
    on the intoxicating nectar
    of his expression

    • This tells the reader what you mean but with finesse. Love it

      • Thank you 😊 It was stupid o’clock in the morning so it’s short, but it says what’s important to me

    • For some reason I was compelled to read this from beginning to end, and then reverse from the end to the beginning. The choice of words in this hook the reader so well. Short yes, but sweet. And done with skill and vivid imagery.

    • Beautifully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! This a magnificent little write here my friend. I mean I really dig the wordplay and imagery. Next level good. Appreciate you.

      • This one had a lot to say with just a few words. I just went with what I felt. Thank you, my friend 😊
