The pains of transitions. This piece hit very deep and I appreciate the imagery here. The prose format has this flow nicely from top to bottom. I think most of what I've read of yours has been in verse, which also flows brilliantly, but this is fantastic.

I know this is odd, but it felt like a black and white image with dark red and sky blue fighting against each other to bleed into the image and be the dominant color.

Thanks for sharing this!
