I love how this circles around to the same feeling – the same sentence. The wonderfully interesting aspect is that the narrator could almost be anyone: family, friend, lover – the only clue as to what the relationship was between the two is the phrase “betrayed my heart,” signifying a broken romance – but it doesn’t have to be. Bittersweet and brilliant. I love it.

“Changed without changing.”

I like the circling around as well. Very well described, the healing, the waiting in the wings, the moment that has now come. :)

I didn’t like this at all when I wrote it – too emotionally raw – that some revision would be in order. Coming back, I like it the way it is.

Thanks for the feedback.

my oh my, what hurt in your words… sharp and poignant and to the point. Relentless in its attack. I don’t know why but this is probably going to stay with me… I admire how much you make me hate every bit of it, like it’s being said to me the reader, and how much I feel like I need to defend myself. Extremely personal although not exact. Strong, powerful, judgmental. Excellent writing.

Awesome….

Aaah! My first feature! I can’t believe it!

:D :D :D

Thank you all so much for your compliments. I’m really astonished.

Congratulations!!! You shouldn’t be astonished at all. This is wonderful.

Well done Jae! You deserve it.

Fantastic piece of writing – very real, honest, and painful.
