Hi!
What a wonderful, relatable little story. I think everyone in their life has been through this type of situation! Thank you for the read, keep it up! Sam
Hello,
Since you were kind enough to review my poem, I decided to stop by and read some of your pieces. I believe you have a wonderful vocabulary and an intense attention to metaphors. There are some great uses of likeness in your short story. The overall plot to the story is my favorite part. What a beautiful idea! I ascribe to the same mentality, to not fear this God of Death, but to see him as kind and endearing.
This was my favorite line: "After all, dreaming is sort of like dying, right?"
Very good.
I did want to mention some grammatical errors that you may want to look into. In the first paragraph, you mention " It pulled me in like the Sun calling you outside on a summer morning. " Here, you use two different voices, first person (I) and second person (you). This kind of throws the reader off. I suggest writing it something like this...
" I could think of nothing else but the door in front of me, pulling me in as would the Sun on a warm summer's day."
Another suggestion:
"His silver boots and gloves complemented his pale complexion and blonde hair like wine fills a glass."
This is a great metaphor but I think it can be written with a better flow, such as...
"The silver of his boots and gloves greatly complemented the paleness of his complexion and his blonde hair, as does wine filling a glass."
Thank you for sharing!
Keep it up,
SaMa
