Microfiction Monday 140

Rescue:From what you should not have done

From your curiosity

The dark of "No"

and that little key;

From the lie you built into marriage

I hope the Key was for Her Heart.

Oops...It sound as though they should have gone to a marriage retreat and worked on their communication skills and transparency.

I like the cryptic phrases, giving a sketch of the situation and leaving the rest to our imaginations.

Oh no, it sounds like things may not go smoothly.

wow, sounds dark and foreboding! I hope it works out in the end!

Oh don't talk to me about lies and marriage -- recently turned my back on that --

but you make it sound beautiful, all that mystery in such a short piece. Wonderfully done!

From the heart I advised all my children to marry their best friends and none did. They all married strangers, thinking they had found the perfect match. "From the lie you built into marriage". So they tried as I did. Three failed and the remaining one probably will. Silly aren't we!
