Babe.
For the breakup Nonet challenge
Seems like just yesterday your cologned
neck was pressed against my lipgloss.
Or the wet inner part of
your bottom lip was snatched
between my front teeth.
Tell me shugs, what
grew old since
we did
not?

Awe, this is so well expressed, so evocative.
Love the touch of ending with a question! Great entry, Natasha!
Ugh so good and sad that things can go south so quickly… as usual wonderful job on this one!
It's so scaryyyy the way people fall out of love. Such a poignant Nonet and I absolutely loved it!
So good and emotional!
Good question.
Lovely.
Great job!!
deliciously introspective. incredible work!
Ah, Natasha! This is so cool, how you went from an intimate visual to the big, existential question! I also love the details in this so much! Cologned neck pressed against my lipgloss is just the best line ever!!!
Love can be gone in seconds sometimes, but it’s always harder on the one who is still in love.
