After she saw them together, a minute could have been an hour; stumbling through the air, she reached her destination; his doorknob turned, the door opened. A mind seemed empty of thought, the body reacted with subconscious impulses; (how convenient they were there), when twilight started creeping in, reality, feeling came crashing back, anxiety, then stark fear rose above the twilight, the night would try to take her; with aid, she staved off the darkness, saw the glorious sunrise.

As usual, Kris, you have unfolded an interesting tale. It reads easily and flows nicely as it unveils its darker side. It does seem a little wordy or maybe prosey. I think it could work better if you trimmed a few words here and there but I won't try to suggest where since you are much better at that than I am anyway. Thanks, Pete |

Thank you all for reading and for your kind comments. Pete....I'm really not sure what I could trim without losing some of the essential parts of the poem. I do thank you for your suggestion, and will continue to look into the possibility of trimming it down a bit. Kris "It is wisdom to know others; |
