Insightful writing my friend. He should invest in scuba gear and enjoy the mermaids company! Solid 7 on this one too.

Our actions and emotions can suffocate those we love and we end up losing them... A great use of metaphors in this deep write. Very nicely penned, Harry!

What a marvelous read from a blessed paged built on lines constructed with the lyrics of the skies and words well supported by dynamic foamy clouds. Message well expressed! No doubt an absolute 7##.
