You caught me at the 'second hand romance' line, and I never quite got over it. Just stopped me cold, because I know what it means...

Very nice job.

WOW!! That was amazing! The emotions were powerful and vivid and it was wonderfully written. The descriptions the narrator was feeling were very vivid, and I loved how in certain places there was a bit of rhyme, but not much, so that it didn't make you obligated to read it a certain way yet it made it a slight bit more rhythmic. Great job, keep it up!

Oh, and btw, thank you so much for your review on "Winter Through a Window". I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Very moving piece. I think I need a tissue...
