You see, I wrote this and then laughing at myself (as I always do when I’ve written something dark or intense), thought;

“or actually, you could just be a stalker or one of these nut jobs who cries over the royal family and shit”

I know, I know….😉😂

This comment made me laugh out loud. Don’t worry, it certainly doesn’t read as a crazy, royalist, nut job stalker 😜🤣 x

Thanks. I posted this and then it kind of spooked me. Felt a little exposed, vulnerable, almost took it down, maybe I still will. But I wanted to post it in case someone else could relate. At least they will feel a little less lonely with it, hey?

I hope you do keep it up. It will resonate with many for sure.

I love the way it is framed by the first and last sentence being in first person but the rest being in third. Puts it in a box and gives you, as the writer, a hint of emotional distance from the subject matter.

Thanks. Yes I originally wrote it in first person but I couldn’t seem to wrap it up. I don’t even really know what I’d call it. So I changed it to third and then sort of encased it, yeah.
