Lovers V: The Scared
Don't fear love, love will save you
Everyone is afraid.
Love is terrifying.
Giving all your heart
and all your mind
and you'll never get them back.
But everyone is afraid.
I know you feel the same.
Let's console each other.
Feel the fear today.
Tomorrow we'll have no need for fright
because we'll have each other.
Note: This is a leftover from my 50 Word Valentines Challenge entries and a slightly more optimistic way to end the series.

Baby's First Steps (Ending)
The ISS is oscillating, gently but constantly. I am tethered in the Soyuz descent module. It's docked at the far end of the Russian Zvezda module, mothballed and neglected. For decades since the 1960s, these old Russian ships had been our Crew Return Vehicles – our lifeboats – until SpaceX's Dragon programme superceded them.
