You won't step over puddles.
Whose life is ruined?

Something Blue
A color to match a color I'll never wear. So much for, "I do."

Final Call
She flings her arms around my neck and squeezes me like she’s never going to let me go. My head spins as her lips brush against my cheek. She must be able to feel my heart thumping in my chest. I shuffle backwards and ram my hands into my coat pockets, watching her reach down and heave the rucksack across her shoulders.

Love the comparison of oceans and puddles
This is really good. It says a lot with such limited syllables. Awesome.
Splendid!!!
