The world came to its
End
But there was no eclipse or any
Earthquakes,
The only trembling was your fingers
on my skin like
You were tapping out Morse
Code
That only I could hear,
And in our snow globe of a world,
the end was
Binding in its iso-
Lation,
Because united we conquer, but divided
We fall,
And we couldn’t merge our multifarious
Perspectives,
And I never did translate your
Dot-dot-dot
I thought it spelled out “eclipse” when it
Was an ellipsis, you
Wanted
A “to be continued” when I was
Saying
“The End.”

Hey! Thanks, I honestly didn't know this was published until now lol. I separated it to "isolate" the word, haha. Nice to hear from you again!

I saw the link of the TI Facebook Activity section of the page. (Congrats not only on the Editor's Choice, publication, and being shared on Facebook!) You've got big things coming your way in the literary/art world. You captured the emotion and image of modern relationships with your flawless wording. Images and metaphors were/ARE immaculate. 10/10

Jade, I haven't seen you on in forever!! Congratulations on being published! I love the way you write, and I always have. (: One question, why'd you separate the word "isolation" onto two separate lines? Honestly, I'm just curious. Nonetheless, awesome job as usual. (:
