Spilt Milk

While young, I saturated
myself with the thrills...
now longingly in dreams only,
I live.

    Wow! First of all, Spilt Milk is a great title choice, I didn't see that at first and thought it as very appropriate. I love your word choice and the powerful imagery your writing creates. "I live" are really good closing words. Good luck!

    Well done. I love the phrase "saturated myself with thrills." I liked the nostalgic air in the first two lines. Good luck in the contest!

    The memories and the dreams can be equally as breathless as the real-life thrills, and sometimes moreso, because they have no limit.

    Fantastic Write on your chosen prompt. Oh, if life be but one single breath. Where would our time be dreamt? Best wishes in life and the contest.

    But dont worry we are given the gift of memories with which we can look back at where we have gone wrong and correct us in the present or future...
    Nice take.

    Much Love
