And The Oscar Goes To...

Congratulations are in order,
The curtain’s up, but your eyes are down.
Would I be right in saying you’re not happy?
I remember your laugh and your silent tears,
I remember how you used to hold my hand in the rain,
I remember the way you breathed, but you’re just wasting my memory.
All I know is that you’re a fantastic actress.
Now you’ve let me in, I can see what could have been
Instead of what was.

End.

Please tell me what you think

    Mother? Romantic partner?

    I was leaning toward mother, because it's more of an obliged position of love and care - where feined affection and attention is easier achieved.

    I would have started a new line after "breathed". Possibly left a gap/blank line break after "happy?" and "memory"... but no real criticism.

    Although not quite the same, this reminded me of a video I watched; http://www.tacmovie.com

    => Jess

    hmm

    i've missed out a lot

    this is a definite change from what i'm used to reading

    this definitely makes me think of a song....perhaps the start of one?

    anyways, i love the shortness of it, drives the point farther in to the reader.

    how've you been dear?
