Wow perfect when falling from love.

This reads so smoothly and quick. Tough way to end it but a really nice write. Mine never ended so quickly. I'm not sure which is easier.

I love how (sadly) intimacy springs out of the more general methods and psychological approaches--at the end. The poem here speaks to itself in one poignant gesture. The quotes, and abrupt simplicity are very touching.
