What a beautiful tapestry you've woven to share that magical time between being a stranger and falling in love! I think for many, myself included, that transition from two individual entities bouncing around the planet to the acceleration to the moment they become one for the briefest of time is the stuff of fantasy. It allows us to know ourselves a bit deeper and we are so much the better for it.
The sincerity of the prose was so powerful, I felt I could smell the dahlias he gave to her and taste the bitter quickening of the take away coffee. Very well done, my friend!
Thanks mate. I wrote the last piece about these two people, the day they met and I suppose date one, and felt I wasn't done with them yet. To be honest I don't think I'm done still.
I'm going to have to come up with a name for this fellow I think because there's more to come. They seem to be nice people and I like the way they seem sort of old-souls. You know? It's enjoyable weaving some words around them.
Thanks for your really nice comment mate, much appreciated.
That's it! Those are the emotions that were just underneath the surface for me while reading it and I just couldn't put my finger on it.
It definitely feels like there is more to explore with these two and I'm looking forward to continuing their journey.
Fiction is a wonderful thing. It can feel real, am I right? 😉
Yeah....fiction.....
