Obsession Part 2

Though I'll remember nature's wonders, sunsets and the breath of spring, feel the wind blow through my hair and know the thrill of sunrise cresting. We see the universe as dancing, two such different creatures trancing, we two will never understand the graceful movements of the other, even if we take each other's hand. Coming close to your destruction you will see the other side, who says who has satisfied requirements for a better life? Friendship, if we could but find it, yields the seeds of greater profit, greater than the seeds of strife. I shall remain just as I ever was.

getting in deeper to the reader, the personification of your character is amazing.

Again we see two "creatures" who "will never understand" each other. And yet, there is a bond between them that cannot be broken. Love may indeed lead to strife, but true friendship always "yields the seeds of greater profit." This is outstanding. On to Part 3. (I feel like I'm watching a good old movie.)

Hey again! Well oh well...I suppose changes should not be a requirement in a 'friendship'. Differences can make it stronger or gradually break it apart. Most often these differences are what will draw one to the other? Anyhow, you are a strong writer empowered by thoughts and imagry that you adept at transmitting to others. I'm tempted to jump the gun and read the last one..I WANT A HAPPY ENDING!:) I won't though..t'would spoil the others..Love ya..Mikki

Again, so beautifully written and rich. I love the phrase "Friendship, if we could but find it, yields the seeds of greater profit". I have always believed that friendship is a strong foundation for love to be built upon. Love Robin
