I really like this piece, it's a great description of a conversation. I like the metaphors you use because they fit perfectly and are interesting. I also like the ending because it's very true. Nice job.

Agreed. The person I'm closest to I talk to for hours on end. And we've definitely had all kinds of emotions and relationships. This is all very true. Good insight into life.
