Hey!
Say it.
Dont keep it.
What have i done?
Control not yourself,
Loosen up, don’t restraint.
I cant read between the lines.
Tell me, it is breaking my heart;
I know i am damn, i am hurt too.
We’re dying, this air, this space, killing us.
Diana, of Myths of the Mirror, has created a new, monthly photo prompt. We are challenged to write something about it. Find out the details, and join in at the above link. Thanks, Diana!

Thank you..
Wonderful Etheree Mich.
Thank you Helene…😊
My pleasure.
I really liked this whole piece, but especially these two lines:
“I cant read between the lines.
Tell me, it is breaking my heart”. There’s such a wonderful melancholy to it. 🙂
Thank you…for always stopping by with your gracious insights .
Not at all a problem! 🙂
Such a beautiful piece! I love how it’s made up of such simple, tight lines, but it conveys so much feeling and emotion.
I took one look at the prompt picture and I couldn’t help it. I just had to do my own take. It was just calling out to me:

You’re welcome, Mich!
Isn’t it amazing and fun and incredible how a speculative photo and challenge can lead us all on such different ways? Love the direction you went here.
Thank you..and yes i was also reading the takes of others on this photo prompt and its amazing to know that there are so many talented writers waiting to be discovered..
I posted my speculative fiction today, but it’s not based on Diana’s photo – just inspired by it. ;-0
I will go and check it out now…😊😊😊
Great take on the prompt, nicely builds, as the subject builds so do the lines.
Thanks..glad you like it
